Crash with "too many values to unpack" when adding package with poetry init #7567
Description
- Poetry version: 1.3.2
- Python version: 3.11.2
- OS version and name: Ubuntu 22.10
- pyproject.toml: not created, crash
- I am on the latest stable Poetry version, installed using a recommended method.
- I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.
- I have consulted the FAQ and blog for any relevant entries or release notes.
- If an exception occurs when executing a command, I executed it again in debug mode (
-vvvoption) and have included the output below.
Package to add or search for (leave blank to skip): now we crash
Invalid package definition.
Package to add or search for (leave blank to skip): maybe now
Adding maybe now
Add a package (leave blank to skip): how about this

Issue
Putting spaces in "Package to add or search for (leave blank to skip): prompt gives different results each time, the third time in a row it crashes.
Using a valid package on the first prompt causes a crash when spaces are used in response to the prompt the second time. I.E. respond with e.g. Django for the first package name, then now we crash for the second package name.
Unfortunately, Poetry just exits and does not write any of your prior responses anywhere so you're starting over next time.
