openCV doesn't compile on Leopard

I've been for the past few hours trying to figure out why openCV doesn't compile on leopard. I've been googling for references but all point to a dead google group.

So my question is quite simple: I've read INSTALL file, read all documentation i could find and still couldn't figure a solution for this.

The compile breaks here (this is generated through the Makefile):

rm -fr .libs/libcxcore.lax/lib_cxcore.a mkdir .libs/libcxcore.lax/lib_cxcore.a Extracting /Users/fmsf/Projects/Motion Tracking/Libs/opencv-1.1.0/cxcore/src/./.libs/lib_cxcore.a (cd .libs/libcxcore.lax/lib_cxcore.a && ar x /Users/fmsf/Projects/Motion Tracking/Libs/opencv-1.1.0/cxcore/src/./.libs/lib_cxcore.a) ar: /Users/fmsf/Projects/Motion: No such file or directory make[2]: *** [libcxcore.la] Error 1 make[1]: *** [check-recursive] Error 1 make: *** [check-recursive] Error 1

Does anyone know what i could do to build it? I'm using mac os 1.5 leopard, while reading i found the full port for Mac OS is still unfinished, but I don't really believe it's the missing of this library.

Based on the error, my suggestion is:

Try building it in a folder that doesn't have spaces in the name.

("/Users/fmsf/Projects/Motion Tracking/" vs "ar: /Users/fmsf/Projects/Motion: No such file or directory")
