[chirp_users] programming ft-8800 gives "ERROR: Clone failed: Radio did not ack block at 0"

[dave at 661.org]

Using Debian Linux 8, CHIRP daily-20151023 (latest downloaded from the 
CHIRP page), and an FTDI cable from Valley Enterprises.

I can download settings from my Yaesu FT-8800 just fine.  But when I try 
to upload settings, I get this:

ERROR: ----------------
ERROR: Clone failed: Radio did not ack block at 0
ERROR: --- Exception Dialog: Radio did not ack block at 0 ---
ERROR: None

What's wrong?
