Subject: [Bug runtime/9850] New: dtrace: Incorrect shell execution
Date: Mon, 16 Feb 2009 12:16:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090215212534.9850.eugen@debian.org> (raw)

dtrace -G uses shell to execute gcc:

    call("gcc -fPIC -c " + fn + " -o " + filename, shell=True)

This makes directories with spaces problematic:

% mkdir a\ directory
% cd a\ directory
% touch test.d
% ../dtrace -G -s $PWD/test.d
gcc: directory/test.o: No such file or directory

Better way is to use python equivalent of execlp(3) or execvp(3).
