            Bug ID: 44132
           Summary: Luajit’s os.execute() does not work well with quoted
                    arguments
           Product: Wine
           Version: 2.19
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: cmd
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: kp-pav at yandex.ru
      Distribution: ---

Created attachment 59873
  --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=59873
Compiled luajit. That was unpacked to C:\luajit.

With luajit installed to C:\luajit (cross-compiled with mingw as they do not
provide downloadable binaries)

    luajit -e "print(os.execute(\"\\\"C:\\luajit\\luajit\\\" -e
\\\"print(1)\\\"\"))"

yields

    Can't recognize 'C:\luajit\luajit" -e "print(1)' as an internal or external
command, or batch script.

. This is bad because this is actually how luarocks is creating directories: it
runs `C: & cd … & "path\to\mkdir"  -p "path\to\dir\to\create"` (note the spaces
around `&` which do not work, but this is a separate issue).

Note that problem is additional pair of quotes:

    luajit -e "print(os.execute(\"\\\"C:\\luajit\\luajit\\\" -e print(1)\"))"

works just fine.

Wine version used is 32-bit wine-any-2.19 from Gentoo portage on a 64-bit
multilib system, USE="X alsa cups fontconfig gecko gstreamer jpeg lcms mono
ncurses nls opengl perl png realtime run-exes scanner ssl threads truetype
udisks xml".
