Package: semi Version: 1.14.6+0.20100207-1 Severity: normal When I get email and read it in wl, I often get attachments with strange filenames (e.g., containing spaces or other special characters). When I type `v', the file is usually saved under its orginal filename in a subdirectory of /tmp: say, '/tmp/EMI9823498/Minutes 2010 03 07.pdf'
/etc/mailcap has: application/pdf; /usr/bin/xpdf '%s;' test=test "$DISPLAY" != ""; description=Portable Document Format; nametemplate=%s.pdf Note that %s is quoted here. So semi calls (mime-entity-safe-filename) and then invokes this command: xpdf '/tmp/EMI9823498/Minutes\ 2010\ 03\ 07.pdf' which fails, because the spaces are quoted twice. I'm not sure where the error is: in update-mime (part of the mime-support package) which has quoted the %s in the original package's mailcap entry, or in semi which quotes filenames before expanding %s in mailcap entries. There's a long discussion in Bug #221717 and in #90483 which seems inconclusive to me as to whether what the desired behaviour is. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages semi depends on: ii apel 10.7+0.20080906-2 portable library for emacsen ii dpkg 1.15.5.6 Debian package management system ii flim 1:1.14.9+0.20100218-1 library about internet message for ii install-info 4.13a.dfsg.1-5 Manage installed documentation in ii xemacs21-mule [ema 21.4.22-2 highly customizable text editor -- ii xemacs21-nomule [e 21.4.22-2 highly customizable text editor -- semi recommends no packages.
