Who puts colons into their filenames? Oh, short-sighted people like the designers of OBS (OpenSUSE Build System) who introduced a colon convention into project names.
This causes a problem even in the POSIX environment, because the colon is used in PATH and PATH-like environment variables. Usually there is no escape mechanism.
