`wp.py build Linux` fails due to whitespaces in target path generated by `wp.py premake Linux` [closed]

Hello! Is there any workaround for the issue?

Wwise SDK version 2022.1.4.8202

Our setup is pretty much default, all other platforms are fine, but the generated `make` files for Linux seems to be messed up.

Compiling on Windows, installed `make` using `chocolatey` package manager.

Here's the output log from the `premake` followed by `build` command:

```

```

Looks like the issue is in this `OBJDIR` variable:

```

OBJDIR = C:/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Audiokinetic/Wwise\ 2022.1.4.8202/SDK/Linux_$(AK_LINUX_ARCH)/Release/obj/$(PREMAKE4_BUILDTARGET_BASENAME)

```
