Sphinxbase Install Error 1 Issue

[noparachute44]

Hi guys,

Apologies if this has been posted before, I did some searching and couldn't find a solution to this exact problem. I downloaded sphinxbase-5prealpha and unzipped it. I also made sure all the dependencies are installed.

I ran autogen.sh and everything looked fine. I ran configure, and again no errors. Then I ran make and got the below output, ending with "Error 1". Any thoughts as to how I can fix this or what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks!

libtool: link: (cd .libs/libsphinxbase.lax/libsphinxutil.a && ar x "/Users/bt/Desktop/Speech Recognition/sphinxbase-5prealpha/src/libsphinxbase/util/.libs/libsphinxutil.a")
../../libtool: line 1082: cd: .libs/libsphinxbase.lax/libsphinxutil.a: No such file or directory

This is a libtool bug where it can not handle path with "Speech Recognition" as one of the components.
