Description

I am developing a portfile using the guide at http://guide.macports.org/#development.local-repositories

My home directory is on a secondary volume whose name is "Silverbird HD" and so contains a space. "port install" does not protect its path names against spaces and fails. See below.

Note: Renaming my volume is a workaround, not a fix :)

rb@silverbird$ sudo port install mps Password: Error: Unable to execute port: /opt/local/var/macports/build/_Volumes_Silverbird: no such file or directory rb@silverbird$ ls /opt/local/var/macports/build/ _Volumes_Silverbird HD_Local_Users_rb_ports_devel_mps _opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_lang_gcc47 _opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_lang_llvm _opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_textproc_pandoc
