I'm trying to compile tesseract-ocr on my Mac 10.9 but It gets stock at:

libtool: link: (cd ".libs" && rm -f "libtesseract.dylib" && ln -s "libtesseract.3.dylib" "libtesseract.dylib")

It really takes a long time and I don't know if it is doing anything useful so is there any way I can get status of it's progress or at leas see what it is doing?

here is the lisf of commands I run to get here:

svn checkout http://tesseract-ocr.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ tesseract-ocr
cd tesseract-ocr
sh ./autogen.sh
./configure
make

By the way it takes my CPU activity very high that my MacBook fan is turned on. I'm also using iTerm as my shell.

That command shouldn't take any time really I wouldn't think. You can see what `ps` or `top` says is running and using all your cpu though. – Etan Reisner Nov 26 '14 at 09:55
Yea Etan I also think it shouldn't. here is a screen shot of my terminal if that helps http://tinypic.com/r/i53dqa/8 – Iman Mohamadi Nov 26 '14 at 10:28
That doesn't tell us anything your paste in the post didn't. What does `ps` or `top` say is running and using your cpu? – Etan Reisner Nov 26 '14 at 11:31
this is top: http://tinypic.com/r/2chpbv9/8 and this is ps: http://tinypic.com/r/2ltj1xz/8 – Iman Mohamadi Nov 26 '14 at 13:28
Is it normal? Because all of my make threads are in sleeping mode. – Iman Mohamadi Nov 26 '14 at 13:32
That appears to be xcrun taking most of the cpu. I don't know why that might be. What doe `ps -faxww` say for the `make` tree of processes? – Etan Reisner Nov 26 '14 at 13:40
I hope this is the part you want to take a look at http://i61.tinypic.com/2yuy99c.png – Iman Mohamadi Nov 26 '14 at 16:18
If you hit control-d in the window where you are running make do things proceed? – Etan Reisner Nov 26 '14 at 16:23
No it doesn't. It just prints a ^D on my console. – Iman Mohamadi Nov 27 '14 at 07:53

Ok. That was a long shot. Does http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18667916/xcrun-lipo-freezes-with-os-x-mavericks-and-xcode-4-x help? – Etan Reisner Nov 28 '14 at 14:34
