Thanks for the script. I ran it but my make ended with 2 errors....

make[2]: *** [modules/python/CMakeFiles/opencv_python.dir/src2/cv2.cpp.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [modules/python/CMakeFiles/opencv_python.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

@solak1984 I have the same problem , how did you resolve it ?

2.4.8 is no longer available, please use
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/opencvlibrary/opencv-unix/2.4.9/opencv-2.4.9.zip

Help me please!
I have error:

Linking CXX shared library ../../lib/cv2.so
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libpython2.7.a(abstract.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.8' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/local/lib/libpython2.7.a: could not read symbols: Bad value

@solak1984 --> follow this steps step 1) cd /opencv-2.4.9/build step 2) vi ../cmake/cl2cpp.cmake step 3) Comment out string(MD5 hash "${lines}") on line 50 and Other options (including updating cmake) can be found at ( http://answers.opencv.org/question/24095/building-opencv-247-on-centos-6/ )
