[Bug 1905630] [NEW] [SRU] Cinnamon and applications won't run a sh script if the directory has spaces in its name

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Ubuntu Foundations Team Bug Bot (crichton):

If you try running a shell script in a terminal, and if the directory
has spaces in it (e.g. 'test name' compared to 'test-name', then the
shell script will not run.

This isn't an app specific thing-but rather something in the desktop
schemas as the executing argument for the default-terminal would be
'default-terminal -x' when it should be --.

This will be an SRU. Template will be filled out as I go along
