Rather than delete everything can I suggest first trying (in this order)

delete InstallRecord.blob (will force a verify_all anyway I think)
delete ~/.steam folder (user's home folder where ./steam is run from)
this contains clientregistry.blob etc.
finally delete server.dll itself (as it's the file it's failing on).

See if this helps the update complete at least.

As to the possible underlying causes. Quite a few good suggestions
have already been posted.
