Bug Description
As the summary says, the Kubuntu Package Installer (GDebiKDE) says "Package File Does Not Exist" when trying to install a deb that's in a directory that has a space in it's name. However, if there is no space in the folder name, it will work just fine. This should be fixed before the final release (i hope). I'm using Kubuntu 7.10 RC.

Confirmed for gdebi-kde, but not gdebi-gtk.
The bug is triggered when there's a space in the file's path, e.g. 2.0.1-19_ i386.deb
LANG=C gdebi-kde toshutils_
The error is:
The package file does not exist
A nonexistent file has been selected for installation. Please select an existing .deb package file.
