Bug Description

Hi. I recently switched torrent client from deluge to qbittorrent. Every single download I've made with qbittorrent has been corrupted.

I'm fairly sure this is not a issue with my server because:
- This was not the case with deluge
- Fsck is not unhappy with the filesystems
- Nothing else is crashy - and qbittorrent is not crashy either

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

Bug reporting is mostly about finding & fixing problems thus preventing future users from hitting the same bug.

I suspect a Support site would be more appropriate, eg. https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu. You can also find help with your problem in the support forum of your local Ubuntu community http://loco.ubuntu.com/ or asking at https://askubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org, or for more support options please look at https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/community-support/709

After using transmission about 24 hours it's clear that something is rotten in ubuntus qbittorrent build. After transmission has force checked the downloads and re-downloaded up to 10% the files are now without errors.

Thanks for your suggestion but this bug report is about finding and fixing problems and not about discussing how software can be used correctly. If transmission had the same issue I'd have closed the bug and started to suspect the server setup.
