 think was uploaded by Jurgen.

 Ouch. It was overwritten with zeros, when it should have been truncated
 (yes, {{{dd if=/dev/zero of={}}}} is quite different from {{{dd
 if=/dev/null of={}}}}).

 The idea was to produce an empty file, before removing it the next day so
 that mirror jobs would save space by also truncating their files even if
 the don't delete them later.  Should work that way now.

 But I didn't notice that you removed the file.  When I checked everything
 looked ok, so I thought it was a some kind of webdav problem.
