Bug#247396: kdeprintfax+efax do not support whitespaces in Personal Settings



Package: kdeprint
Version: 4:3.2.2-1
Severity: important

Hi,

when specifiing a name (Robert Cheramy) or a Faxnumber (+49 711 1200042)
with white spaces and using efax, The arguments are not tansmited well
to efax, and I get folowing error message :

Sending to fax using: /usr/bin/fax NAME='Robert Cheramy' DEV='ttyS0'
PAGE=a4 FROM='+49 711 1200042' send  '0'
'/tmp/kde-tibob/kdeprintfax_NtxQuJHB' 
/usr/bin/fax: line 1: Cheramy: command not found
/usr/bin/fax: line 1: 711: command not found

And the Fax headers contain /usr/bin/fax default values.

A quick fix for the end-user is to enter his name and fax number with
double quotes : "Robert Cheramy" and "+49 711 1200042".

I tried to add double quotes around "%user% but it won't help.

I am unsure if this is an efax bug or a kdeprintfax bug, please forgive
me if I am wrong posting it here.

Cheers,

tibob
