Newbie needs help with... his blood pressure ;-)

Hi

I'm trying to build mod_pyton on Leopard 10.5.4 on a Mac G5 with this
cvs version
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/quetzalcoatl/mod_python/trunk

with this Python

python
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Feb 22 2008, 07:57:53)
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5363)] on darwin

So i did
../configure --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs
--with-python=/usr/local/bin/python ARCHFLAGS='-arch ppc'

and I get

checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out
checking whether the C compiler works... yes
checking whether we are cross compiling... no
checking for suffix of executables...
checking for suffix of object files... o
checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes
checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes
checking for gcc option to accept ANSI C... none needed
checking for ar... ar
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for main in -lm... yes
checking for an ANSI C-conforming const... yes
checking your blood pressure... a bit high, but we can proceed
configure: checking whether apxs is available...
checking Apache version... 2.2.8

checking for --with-max-locks... no
Using 8 MAX_LOCKS.
checking for --with-flex... no
checking for flex... /usr/bin/flex
found /usr/bin/flex, we'll use this. Use --with-flex to specify another.
checking flex version... 2.5.33. Good
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: creating src/Makefile

Seems good for my blood, but

make

gives this

Compiling for DSO.

Oups. Bad beginning. Sorry for the double post. Thunderbird has mental
problems

/usr/sbin/apxs -I/Users/speciale/Desktop/dossier sans titre 3/src/include

[...]

I imagine that if this is really the command run by the Makefile, apxs
might get upset by the unquoted path which contains spaces. Either the
Makefile needs editing to "quote" the directory or you might want to
rename "dossier sans titre 3" to something without spaces... and
perhaps with a more informative name, too. ;-)
