It indeed seems to be a problem with free disk space.

The USNO catalog needs a total of 5.4GiB of disk space while being installed.
1.4GiB for the original tar.bz2 (in /tmp)
2.0GiB for the tar after uncompressing (in /tmp)
2.0GiB for the real catalog (in /home)

If you run out of disk space in the last step (I have /tmp and /home on the 
same partition) you get only part of the file.

I guess it could be optimized by either deleting the original download right 
after uncompressing and before unpacking or by doing the uncompressing and 
unpacking in one step to skip the *.tar. What is the right component to report 
this against?
