Andreas,
Thank you for your bug report and patch. I have applied the patch
and tested it, and the addition of quotes to the [ -z ] test does not
seem to correct the issue you have identified with passing a string
containing one or more space characters:
$ less /usr/bin/make-jpkg
[...]
# If a default has been set for either of the
# environment variables, use it; otherwise,
# default to the name and email used by the
# Debian Java Maintainers project.
if [ -z "$J2SE_PACKAGE_FULL_NAME" ]; then
maintainer_name="Debian Java Maintainers"
else
maintainer_name="$J2SE_PACKAGE_FULL_NAME"
fi
[...]
$ fakeroot make-jpkg --full-name John Doe --email [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ibm-java2-sdk-50-linux-i386.tgz
make-jpkg: missing pathname
Try `make-jpkg --help' for more information.
This phenomenon is not uncommon in my experience; the workaround I
usually apply is either to enclose the argument's value in quotes or to
precede the space with the "\" character:
$ fakeroot make-jpkg --full-name "John Doe" --email [EMAIL PROTECTED]
