As pointed out in this comment, the issue isn't specific to macOS. It affects all Unix systems because Unix is hostile to spaces in filenames. It just happens to affect pipx users on macOS because pipx has opted to use the recommended platform dirs for mac that include spaces. Also, as pointed out in the docutils comment, this documented workaround is slightly terrible. It requires mutating the install on every package install or update. It also requires polluting the user's (thanks though for working on a solution; I respect the work here) |
