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

[Daniel Hartwig]

Also, there is this statement in section 5.1:

> Whitespace must not appear inside names (of packages,
> architectures, files or anything else) or version numbers, or
> between the characters of multi-character version
> relationships.

Title:
  apt-get fails if a package has a space in its Filename

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  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.
