[issue4508] distutils compiler not handling spaces in path to output/src files

[Alexandru Gheorghe]

Alexandru Gheorghe added the comment:

I am having the same issue on Debian 7 x86-64 (3.2.0-4-amd64)
Python 2.7.3 (default, Jan  2 2013, 13:56:14) // [GCC 4.7.2] on linux2

Not noticing this bug I've opened a duplicate, for which the interesting 
comment can be found here: http://bugs.python.org/issue20824#msg212548

Please let me know if you need any files and I will try hard to provide some in 
my free time (also unittest from what I've read in the comments posted here).

[issue20824] setup.py install doesn't parse spaces in path

[Alexandru Gheorghe]

New submission from Alexandru Gheorghe:

When having spaces in the path which represents the root for the build on 
going, rpmbuild from bdist_rpm will fail:



+ python setup.py install -O1 --root=/home/lex/Development/4. Test/11. 
ARTA/build/src/rpm/BUILDROOT/efw-arta-3.0.1_0.test0-0.x86_64 
--record=INSTALLED_FILES
invalid command name 'Test/11.'
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.cbEEZl (%install)


RPM build errors:
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.cbEEZl (%install)
error: command 'rpmbuild' failed with exit status 1


With this patch it will work:

--- bdist_rpm-BAK.py2014-03-02 14:52:31.501744617 +0200
+++ bdist_rpm.py2014-03-02 14:53:10.705746243 +0200

 # that we open and interpolate into the spec file, but the defaults
 # are just text that we drop in as-is.  Hmmm.
 
-install_cmd = ('%s install -O1 --root=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT '
-   '--record=INSTALLED_FILES') % def_setup_call
+install_cmd = ('%s install -O1 --root="$RPM_BUILD_ROOT" '
+   '--record="INSTALLED_FILES"') % def_setup_call
 
 script_options = [
 ('prep', 'prep_script', "%setup -n %{name}-%{unmangled_version}"),


but then another roadblock is hit:


+ cp -pr CHANGELOG /home/lex/Development/4. Test/11. 
ARTA/build/src/rpm/BUILDROOT/efw-safi-3.0.1_0.test0-0.x86_64/usr/share/doc/efw-arta-3.0.1_0.test0
cp: cannot stat `CHANGELOG': No such file or directory
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.1tO2OV (%doc)
error: File not found: /home/lex/Development/4. Test/11. 
ARTA/build/src/rpm/BUILDROOT/efw-arta-3.0.1_0.test0-0.x86_64/usr/share/doc/efw-arta-3.0.1_0.test0


seems stat also needs quoted path:

lex@hemvi:~/Development/4. Test/11. ARTA/build$ stat --format="%a" 
/home/lex/Development/4. Test/11. ARTA/build/CHANGELOG ; echo $?
755
stat: cannot stat `Test/11.': No such file or directory
stat: cannot stat `ARTA/build/CHANGELOG': No such file or directory
1

lex@hemvi:~/Development/4. Test/11. ARTA/build$ stat --format="%a" 
"/home/lex/Development/4. Test/11. ARTA/build/CHANGELOG" ; echo $?
644
0


I guess all the calls need to be rewritten to take into account spaces in the 
path. This would be too laborious, thus perhaps we should warn in documentation 
packagers/developers not to use spaces in path when building?
