Description of problem: When I try to drag files from tar archives opened with Xarchiver and drop them to a directory containing spaces in the path, the extraction fails, since the tar command is missing quotation marks. The attached patch solves the issue. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.5.2-11

Created attachment 557036 [details] xarchiver-0.5.2-drag-n-drop_escaped_path.patch The following patch fixes the issue better ... works for all characters which need to be escaped ...
Created attachment 557050 [details] xarchiver-0.5.2-drag-n-drop_escaped_path.patch The previous one could produce unwanted memory leaks by leaving the original unescaped path unfreed.
