Subject: Bug#274700: flac: --export-vc-to should quote strings containing spaces

Package: flac
Version: 1.1.0-11
Severity: normal


eval `metaflac --export-vc-to - "$flacfile"`

fails if a vc-field contains spaces because the strings are not
quoted. If they were, using metaflac in scripts would be much easier
like in

eval `metaflac --export-vc-to - "$flacfile"`
id3 -A "$ALBUM" -t "$TITLE" -a "$ARTIST" -y
"$DATE" -g "$GENRE" -T "$TRACKNUMBER"
"$mp3file"

Now I need to do this nasty workaround:

eval `metaflac --export-vc-to - "$flacfile" | sed
s'/=/="/' | sed 's/$/"/'`

that's a nice trick but I don't think it should be integrated
into metaflac (not yet at least).  there are other things that
can appear in comments that will throw this off too (double
quotes, newlines).

this has come up on the vorbis lists too in the past and has
not been resolved as far as I know.
