[Pkg-electronics-devel] Bug#959862: klayout: Klayout wrapper script does not handle spaces in filenames

[Xaveer Leijtens]

Package: klayout
Version: 0.26.2-2+b1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

The klayout wrapper script /usr/bin/klayout uses $* to access the parameters
passed to it. This gives problems if e.g. the GDS filename contains spaces
("unable to open file").

It would be easily solved by replacing $* with "$@":
#!/bin/sh
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/klayout exec /usr/lib/klayout/klayout "$@"

which will correctly pass the arguments to the klayout executable.

Best regards,
Xaveer
