well a full disk is another issue, in that case its just reporting the
wrong error but failing like it should.

{Sh|C}ould there be a more descriptive error?

we use strerror because there's nothing else we can really do. The error
comes from the system and it could be one of any number of system errors
- so we can't just say "you're out of disk space" or something.

hmm, i wish i knew why that was happening, i can't remember if i fixed
it in 1.5 or not.

remove the .ev-summary file for that folder and try again.

Oh, the reason was a full HD while trying to empty trash. The 1.4.x had
a problem with this. Haven't seen it on 1.5.x yet, though. But IIRC, you
must shutdown evo, before removing any files.
