Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] %{**} loses whitespace (#1439)

[Michal Domonkos]

What you're looking for is the `%{quote:...}` macro, documented 
[here](https://rpm.org/user_doc/macros.html).

Example without the quote macro:
```
$ rpm --define 'hello() %{**}' --eval "%hello 1 2"
1 2
```
And with the macro:
```
$ rpm --define 'hello() %{**}' --eval "%hello 1 %{quote: 2}"
1  2
```

Hope that helps! I'm closing the issue now, please reopen if that's not what 
you meant. Thanks!

[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] %{**} loses whitespace (#1439)

[Demi Marie Obenour]

If a macro is passed several arguments separated by some whitespace, I expect 
that `%{**}` includes the original whitespace.  Instead, this whitespace is 
lost.
