Package: util-vserver
Version: 0.30.214-6

Short version:
When running the command
vserver tethys start
there is an error if the host's /etc/fstab contains a mount point
with a space.

Long version:
I have this line in the /etc/fstab of the host system:
/Linked\040Pictures   /root/Linked\040Pictures   none   bind   0   0

Notice the embedded octal escape code \040 which is the way to
specify a <file system> or <mount point> in with a space in it.

Then when I run the command
vserver tethys start
I get the following output:

saturn:~# vserver tethys start
umount: /root/Linked040Pictures: not found
Starting system log daemon: syslogd.
Not starting internet superserver: no services enabled.
Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server: sshd.
Starting periodic command scheduler: crond.
saturn:~#

Notice the error from umount. Apparently whatever is passing
arguments to umount is not properly dealing with the octal
escape code.

It may be of interest that I filed a similar bug against the
package mount. That bugreport includes the (very possibly non-
optimal) workaround I implemented for that situation.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance,
