[Bug 376162] [NEW] pysdm does not handle mount points with spaces

[Will Hui]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: pysdm

With pysdm 0.4.1-0ubuntu2 in Jaunty, setting up a partition to use a
mount point with spaces in its path does _not_ yield the right
configuration in /etc/fstab. According to the fstab manpage, spaces in
the mount point can be escaped as '\040'. So for example if your mount
point is "/media/Windows HD", it should be written in /etc/fstab as
"/media/Windows\040HD". Currently, pysdm would just write
"/media/Windows HD" in /etc/fstab, thereby confusing the parser.

If the mount point containing spaces does not exist, pysdm does create
the directory properly, so this part of it at least is not an issue.
