Package: xpdf Version: 3.04+git20211021-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I love the ability to control xpdf from another program. Makes it easy to integrate into my workflow. However, it looks like xpdf doesn't parse correctly the -exec argument value when it includes spaces. For instance, run: xpdf -remote myxpdf somedocument.pdf Then run: xpdf -remote myxpdf -exec 'run(ls)' This works, the first xpdf command will run 'ls'. However the following command fails: xpdf -remote myxpdf -exec 'run(ls -l)' And it fails at the client side, showing a brief command line help. Not at the remote server side. Therefore suggesting it's a command line parsing issue.
