Hi Ruud,

the problem is located in the Python module "shutil" and neither in
LottaNZB nor in HellaNZB, so we depend on the Python developers to fix
this bug and you most probably cannot fix it by changing the permissions
of this NTFS directory. Theoretically it would be possible to change
HellaNZB so that it works around the problem, but getting this patch
included in the Debian/Ubuntu package is a devil of a job.

So what I suggest you to do is to select a download directory on a non-
ntfs partition.

Status in LottaNZB • Automated Usenet Client: Invalid
Status in Python: New

Bug description:
Downloaded and finished downloads are re-processed on next LottaNZB startup, when leaving the finished item and even when the queue has been cleared. This creates new folders in the Download directory, and creates duplicates of allready finished downloads.
