Subject: Error reported if blanks are present in archive filename
Found in Archive::Rar 1.93 on a Linux machine equipped with Fedora 8 Perl v.5.8.8 If the archive filename has blanks in it ( e.g "My archive.rar" ), the List method exit with an error. The error disappear if the blanks are removed A way to resolve the error could be to enclose the rar archive filename with double quotes adding the following line $me->{archive} = "\"$me->{archive}\""; before the line 229 in Rar.pm file, or however the module mantainer prefers ;-) Way to reproduce: my $rar = new Archive::Rar(); $rar->List( -archive => $archive ); $rar->PrintList( );
This issue should be fixed by Archive::Rar 1.94 which was just released. It may take some time to propagate to all CPAN mirrors.
