Description Micha 2017-06-18 14:39:48 UTC
(Found this because there were an orphaned package on my system.)

For every python slot:
"/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/setuptools/command/launcher manifest.xml"
"/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/setuptools/script (dev).tmpl"

I think an underscore would be better.

Spaces and brackets are not nice, but not forbidden. 
However spaces are a trap for broken bash scripts with missing {}

If a (gentoo) script fails to handle files with spaces, please create a bug report for that tool.

I assign the ticket to python@, if they want to create cleaner file names...

Perhaps the best is to report upstream, if you think they should use different filenames. 

AFAIR this is not covered by PEP 0008
