captain fails to install a package if the path contains a space #25

Description

@WerIstLuka

i created a directory with the name "has space" and put a .deb file in there
trying to install said file with captain gives me this error

dpkg-deb: error: --control takes at most two arguments (.deb and directory)

Type dpkg-deb --help for help about manipulating *.deb files;
Type dpkg --help for help about installing and deinstalling packages.
dpkg: error processing archive /home/luka/has space/luka-menu.deb (--install):
 dpkg-deb --control subprocess returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /home/luka/has space/luka-menu.deb

simply renaming the directory to not have a space in it fixes it

this also leads to this issue happening #16
