Bug Description

Binary package hint: kubuntu-default-settings

if you select two or more files and right click on them -> kubuntu menu -> install doesn't work anymore, worked in Edgy.
This bug is introduced with fix for path with spaces, to revert it change file:
/usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kde-profile/default/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/kubuntu-servicemenu.desktop

at line 16:

Exec=xterm -title "%c" -e 'sudo dpkg -i "%U"; echo "Press <enter> to exit..."; read;'
to
Exec=xterm -title "%c" -e 'sudo dpkg -i %U; echo "Press <enter> to exit..."; read;'

however install from path with spaces will back to fail

If you want to test this.
Put kubuntu-servicemenu.sh in /usr/bin/ and kubuntu-servicemenu.desktop in
/usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kde-profile/default/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/

This should be able to install multiple files and handle spaces in paths etc.

Tested installing 3 debian files at once placed into a path with spaces, works perfectly!

Thanx

Looks good.

Fdoving, you're going to do a full debdiff for this, presumably?

and now this bug is back thanx to new gdebi.

Instead of going forward we step backword, good!
And they said I've always bad words, but prior doing these changes we first think on consequences?

I thanx all of you for your great job, but really sometimes patches and packages are not tested at all!
I discover this bug in few seconds, so it's impossible that none before have checked.
