DetailsSummary and Info:
When attempting to create my own package, I tried to download simple fonts from an URL with %20 characters in it (spaces in URL encoding). Thus I wanted my destination files to have spaces in their name (as is the case for multiple fonts such as the powerline patched fonts and the like). Instead makepkg interpreted the spaces as newlines. Steps to Reproduce: Using this simple PKGBUILD file (attached), one can reproduce the issue. It can be seen in /usr/share/makepkg/util/source.sh that if quotes were appropriately added in the get_filename() function, this issue would be resolved. I'm not familiar enough with makepkg to warn about potential side effects.

No potential side effects, and this worked once. Patch proposed at https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2021-April/024955.html
