Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 107731
gdialog doesn't handle spaces
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:10:32 EST
Description of problem: The gdialog compatibility wrapper for zenity doesn't handle arguments with spaces. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-utils2.4.0-1 Here's an example that gives a very strange result: gdialog --title "My title" --radiolist "My list" 400 500 5 1 "First choice" on 2 "Second choice" off
I've created a patch now, see http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125337.

I'm going to close this specific bugreport as upstream, since it seems the upstream developers are incorporating the patches. If you would like to see these patches used in a possible update to FC1. Please open a new bug against FC1 with patches against the FC1 version of the source code attached. I know it might seem redundant to submit patches both upstream and here in the distribution level bugzilla. But it's a good idea for Fedora users to be able to find and review the patches specifically on Fedora systems, to make a stronger case for incorporating the patches into a possible update package. This of course doesn't garuntee the package maintainer will feel its worth doing, but community review and confirmation that the patches work for fedora specifically, won't hurt the chances.
