Tracker cannot open files from a file manager when a space is in the path

[psjf]

I am running Tracker 4.87 on Kubuntu 14.10 64-bit, with Oracle Java installed. Whenever I try to open a Tracker file which has a space in the path (for example, /home/user/folder name/file.trk) from my file manager Dolphin, the file fails to open, as Tracker appears to treat the text before and after each space as paths to two separate files, which of course don't exist. However, the files can be opened successfully by opening Tracker first, then going to File > Open File... and opening the file from the dialog box.

Thanks for the clear bug report.
