Looked more into that.
Turns out that the Dnspython (as packed with eventlet) in https://github.com/rthalley/dnspython/blob/master/dns/rdtypes/txtbase.py#L56-L73 generates the list 'strings' that has no spaces.
So, if we do like:
[root@openstack ~]# python Python 2.7.5 (default, Aug 4 2017, 00:39:18) [GCC 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-16)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import dns.rdataset >>> >>> txt_record = "some valid record with spaces" >>> print(dns.rdataset.from_text(dns.rdataclass.IN, dns.rdatatype.TXT, 0, txt_record)) 0 IN TXT "some" "valid" "record" "with" "spaces"
Result will be missing all the spaces.
