Bug 216587 – dev-tex/rubber with app-text/texlive

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Christoph Brill (egore) (RESIGNED) 2008-04-06 17:48:08 UTC]

I just installed rubber and wanted to run it with texlive. So I installed on my (until now) tex-free system texlive instead of tetex.

But running rubber fails because it states it could not run pdflatex.

Reproducible: Always

Digitaltechnik.latex

Try to compile this example with 

rubber -f -s --inplace -d "Digitaltechnik.latex"

to reproduce the error.

Note: I'm using rubber 1.1 and texlive 2007-r3

*sigh* I couldn't resist .... here's the necessary patch (stolen from Ubuntu)

ok this seems to be because the file you're working with is in a directory with spaces.

If I put it in /tmp, its ok, if I put it in /tmp/foo\ bar, its not.

lemme see if I can bump a newer version

bumped rubber-1.1_p20080323
please tell me if that fixes your problems; here it does
