    Description

      qmake: On Windows then a libpath has a space in it, even if it is quoted any libraries found there will not be quoted

      I have included a sample code to reproduce.

      You need to copy Qt "include" and "lib" folder under "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\MyProject" folder (or equivalent on your machine)

      If there is no space in the path it works fine
      If there is a space you get the following error message:
      :-1: error: cannot open file 'c:\Documents.obj'
