Package: xvfb
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-8
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
When passing xvfb-run a command that uses quotes, the quoting is lost
and the command doesn't work as intended.
an example:
$ xvfb-run wine 'c:\Program Files\NSIS\makensis.exe' 'win\client.nsi'
/usr/bin/wine.bin: cannot find 'c:\Program'
Wine failed with return code 1
With the following patch applied, this works as expected.
