Description of problem: virt-manager can't find an iso image if it has spaces in its name or is locate in a path where any of the folders has spaces in its name. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virt-manager-1.0.1-2.fc20 and virt-manager-1.0.1-1.fc20 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open virt-manager and create a new virtual machine 2. Select "Local install media (ISO image or CDROM)", click forward, select "Use ISO image:" and click browse 3. Select a ISO image which has spaces in its name or is located in a path that has spaces Actual results: Input error Error setting install media location. Checking installer location failed: Could not find media '/home/user/path to file/os file.iso'. Expected results: To continue without the error Additional info: none
I can't reproduce. Can reproduce with virt-manager --debug and attach the output? Also, ls -l of the file in question.
