Could you please please explain it? Why bash variables need quotes?

Well, $srcdir/$destdir need double-quotes because they might contain
spaces (although creating dirs with white-spaces on UNIX is a dumb
idea). What about other variables like $pkgver? The same question
applied to other parts of PKGBUILD - why quotes are needed for
dependencies, license, arch, sources...?
