--- Comment #7 from Harald Sitter <sitter at kde.org> ---
This looks suspiciously like a server-side problem that we can't do anything
about. 
If I give you a diff can you build kio-extras yourself to get some more debug
output? This is either a problem with libssh or the server, but it's hard to
say which without some more context on the error.

Is this still a problem if you disable the .part files? (run `kcmshell5
netpref` and uncheck 'mark partial files')

in Comment #3 we see it successfully opening the file on the server and writing
the first (and only) 8355 bytes. It'd then continue to write 0 bytes and that
results in a zero byte write which would then conclude the upload. Except,
instead of coming back with 0 bytes the second write raises an error which
leaves you with the dangling .part file.
We aren't doing anything crazy there, so I am rather thinking the server
considers 0 byte writes a problem, which is stupid and wrong.
