start-tor-browser.desktop parameter passing broken on spaces
Steps to reproduce:
- install Tor Browser to /home/user/.tb/tor-browser (but any folder should work if you adjust the paths below)
- Go to https://check.torproject.org
- Save that website under /home/user/Downloads/
- There now will be a file "/home/user/Downloads/Congratulations. This browser is configured to use Tor..html" (any other long file name with spaces should work also)
The following commands to work as expected:
bash -x /home/user/.tb/tor-browser/Browser/start-tor-browser --new-tab "/home/user/Downloads/Congratulations. This browser is configured to use Tor..html"bash -x /home/user/.tb/tor-browser/Browser/start-tor-browser "/home/user/Downloads/Congratulations. This browser is configured to use Tor..html"firefox "/home/user/Downloads/Congratulations. This browser is configured to use Tor..html"The following fails:
/home/user/.tb/tor-browser/start-tor-browser.desktop "/home/user/Downloads/Congratulations. This browser is configured to use Tor..html"Expected result: Open that file and show it in Tor Browser as the other above commands working for Firefox / Tor Browser should do.
Actual result:
Tor Browser opens ~ 10 links that do not work. To Congratulations., This, etc.
Impact: This currently prevents Whonix users [Whonix is using Tor Browser by default] to open local html files.
Workaround:
We could use Browser/start-tor-browser directly instead, which would work, if that is now the canonical way to do this.
But perhaps parameter passing can be fixed in start-tor-browser.desktop?
