[Bug 1086997] Re: apt-get fails if a package has a space in its Filename

[Michael Vogt]

Thanks for the bugreport and the patch.

Given the trivial nature of the patch and that indeed http is used
outside of a strict packages context sometimes (e.g. changelogs and in
the future potentially more)  I applied it to the bzr tree and it will
be part of the next upload.

** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Fix Committed

Title:
  apt-get fails if a package has a space in its Filename

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  If a package has a space in its Filename: entry in the Packages file,
  you get errors on HTTP resolution.

  Normal Debian repos don't have a case like that, but the Packages file
  should work even if packages are not stored in the pool in the most
  usual way.
