Bug#659636: settitle fails when -t contains a space

[Joey Hess]

Package: hpodder
Version: 1.1.5.0+nmu3
Severity: normal

joey@wren:~>hpodder settitle --help
...
You must specify one podcast ID with -c and the new title with -t.
If the title contains spaces, you must enclose it in quotes.
joey@wren:~>hpodder settitle -c 47 -t 'off the hook'
hpodder: user error (settitle: unrecognized arguments; see hpodder settitle --help)

I removed the space and it worked.
Quite possibly the documentation is just wrong and titles cannot have
spaces for some good reason.

That *should* work, and in fact, I know it used to.

I suspect maybe there was an API change to GetOpt.

Does it work with:

hpodder settitle -c 47 '--title=off the hook'

?

I can confirm, GetOpt is not accepting spaces for short options, long
are ok.
