Hi DavidI just run a quick find command and found 3 files with spaces in there 
names. These are dojo demos files, so they might not be important after all. 
Here they are:UI/lib/dojo/dojox/data/demos/geography/United\ States\ of\ America
UI/lib/dojo/dojox/data/demos/geography/Commonwealth\ of\ Australia
UI/lib/dojo/dojox/data/demos/geography/Mexico/Mexico\ City

The "\" is added by find -ls as it escapes "unusual characters". The problem 
with the chmod the way it is done is it executes in one shot on all the files 
of the distribution. So if there is only one file with a space in the name it 
will fail which it does right now.
As for the symbolic link the following command    ln -s /usr/share/dojo 
$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_datadir}/%{name}/UI/lib/dojo

will create a symbolic link named UI/lib/dojo but the directory already exists 
as you can see above where files have spaces in their names. So, in my opinion 
the command should be rewritten to create /usr/share/dojo symbolic link instead.
As I said, I have never created an RPM out of this package before and I am 
still running ledgermsb 1.2. for my business needs. The reason I am trying to 
create a package is to automate the creation of KVM virtual machines that run 
only ledgersmb. So I want the package to be installed during the build.

  Hi Khalil,
 
 Others will comment on the changes as well, although I think the chmod change 
looks fine.
 
 The symlink (ln -s) on the other hand can not be removed.
 It is (as of 1.4) an essential part of the project as dojo is used to provide 
User Interface features.
 
 I am more interested in what files the chmod fails on, if any, within the 
project.
 
 In general I agree that we shouldn't have a bug with spaces in paths.
 However I don't believe we should have any files within the project that have 
spaces in their names or paths.
 
 
In general, spaces in filenames / paths is a bad thing as it can cause 
difficult to locate bugs if a library (script, binary or other) fails to handle 
it correctly.
 
 No *nix system that I am aware of uses spaces in paths or filenames unless a 
user has specifically created such a beast.
 
 
 Regards
 David G

  I don't know if this has been discussed here before or not. I haven't red 
this mailing list for a while and I have never generated an RPM package for 
ledgersmb before today. So bare with me please. Anyway, I found a bug in 
ledgersmb and here it is. First the two chmod fail when they encounter files 
with space in their names. And second the symbolic link creation I don't know 
what it is for, so I commented it out. Please let me know if that's a mistake.
