[Bug 1086997] [NEW] apt-get fails if a package has a space in its Filename

Public bug reported:

If a package has a space in its Filename: entry in the Packages file,
you get errors on HTTP resolution.

Normal Debian repos don't have a case like that, but the Packages file
should work even if packages are not stored in the pool in the most
usual way.

** Affects: apt (Ubuntu)
