Re: [Paparazzi-devel] make fails when a parent directory of paparazzi3 has spaces in the name

[Pascal Brisset]

Hi,

classical "quote" problem in script languages. It seems there is no good 
solution to handle spaces in file names with make 
(http://www.cmcrossroads.com/content/view/7859/268/) . So don't use 
them. We have just patched the Makefile to produce a proper error 
message if a space occurs in the path.
