#150: os.system fails in hook-xml
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
Reporter: r.og...@… | Owner: giovannibajo
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: highest | Milestone:
Component: PyInstaller | Version: PyInstaller 1.3
Severity: blocker | Keywords: os.system hook-xml
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
When running Build.py on a windows system and the python interpreter is
installed at a directory containing a space character (e.g. C:\Program
Files\...) the run will fail in hook-xml due to missing temporary file.
The file is missing, because the previous os.system() call fails.
Inspecting for cause, it fails due alleged unknown command "C:\Program".
Obviously the command line is misinterpreted, due to beginning
doublequotes. [[BR]]
My proposal for a fix:
{{{
if string.find(sys.executable, ' ') > -1:
exe = '"%s"' % sys.executable
os.system('"%s -c "import xml;print xml.__file__" >"%s""' % (exe,
fnm))
else:
exe = sys.executable
os.system('%s -c "import xml;print xml.__file__" >"%s"' % (exe,
fnm))
}}}
