Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: mt-daapd
mt-daapd will refuse to scan some file whose name contains characters
like ? (and probably & and others). The error reported is for example
mt-daapd[9571]: Error opening [...]/Orbital/In Sides/07. Out There
Somewhere? Pt. 1.ogg: No such file or directory
The source file /src/io.c (io_open, io_urldecode, ...) expects to
receive a valid URL string, but /src/scan-ogg.c line 91 passes simply a
"file://" prefix appended with the file name. When the file name
contains unescaped characters like ?, io_open will treat the part
following the character as an option string that is not part of the file
path.
I couldn't find an "io_urlencode" or a similar function to make a quick
test patch, but I could write one if needed.
