           Summary: automake manager incorrectly handles data files with
                    spaces in the name
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdevelop-bugs kdevelop org
        ReportedBy: danni exemail com au


Version:           3.4 svn 24th Nov 2006 (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
Compiler:          4.1.2 
OS:                Linux

I followed these instructions....

To handle data files in Automake Manager, first add
a subproject (e.g. pics) and, before adding any targets,
right-click on the new subproject and select Options,
Prefixes and Add.  Now enter a short name (e.g. pics
again) and the path to an installation directory
(e.g. in KDE, use $(kde_datadir)/appname/pics).  Now,
when you add a target, select Data File for the Primary,
"pics" for the prefix and any non-blank string for the
"file name" (it only matters in compileable targets).
Any files you add to the target "Data in pics" will be
copied when your application is installed.

All of this works except when a file has spaces in the name. In this case the makefile treats each part of the file between spaces as a separate target.
