Of course. I presume 290GB is enough

In any case why would it download the wrong version if there was a disk 
space problem?

If you look at its output, Freshclam is even reporting that the version it 
downloaded isn't what it was expecting to download.

It downloads (what looks like) the wrong version. Then when it sees the 
mismatch, it downloads the patch, but then can't merge them. Maybe it 
downloaded the right file, with the wrong version identifier, so the patch 
fails?

I don't doubt that it works for many people, otherwise someone else would 
probably have noticed, but it's not working here, and it's repeatable. It's 
been fine until this morning

I've just tried again, and again (emptying the DB before each test, but no 
other changes) . It worked twice, and then stopped working again. Out of 
about 20 attempts, 2 worked, the others failed with this problem. So, I'd 
guess that that one of the mirrors has a broken file on it, and I'm just 
unlucky to be allocated that mirror most of the time.
