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:

-        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

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?
