Bug ID: 389960
Summary: Fits Open fails for files with parenthesis in path or
name
Product: kstars
Version: git
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: mutla...@ikarustech.com
Reporter: sch...@bitrail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Repeatable on Mint Xenial and OSX as of 2.9.2 as the latest git builds.
- In the kstars main window or the FITS viewer, go to File->Open FITS
- Navigate to a fits file that either has a parenthesis in the path or in the
file name itself.
- Attempt to open the file. This results in an error and the file does not
open.
Error message is:
Could not open file <path to file>. Error could not open the named file
I noticed this due to the fact that Dropbox forces a parenthesis in the
directory name.
Workaround for directories: create a link to the directory, e.g.:
ln -s <path to directory with paren> <link name no paren>
