This is due to that the command system accepts only one argument. In the explain case, the argument taken into account by the command is 'echo'. The argument 'linux' is skiped.

A workaround, for version prior to 4.2, is to enclosed the complete system command with quotes: petals-cli -c system "echo linux"

Workaround with quotes for 2.1.2
In version 2.2.0, quotes are not required:

cdeneux@cdeneux-laptop:~$ petals-cli -c -- system echo linux
linux
cdeneux@cdeneux-laptop:~$ petals-cli -c -- system "echo linux"
linux
