In some software the compiler must be invoked with an argument containing a literal single quote which requires escaping in the call. E.g.:
gcc -DFOO=\'value\'
However the current rpath wrapper would remove those single quotes causing errors during compilation or erronous behavior of the compiled binary.
Fix by replacing the
eval
of therpath_args.py
output byreadarray -t
. An array asignment could be used (CMD_ARGS=( $(rpath_args.py ...) )
) but that would break up arguments containing spaces. Quotes from the output are kept literally, so quoting to avoid this is not possible.readarray -t
works and is widely available.Also some minor fixes related to quoting in the bash script template.
