As much as I love Debian, I have to say Eric is correct on this. 
There's nothing in Debian fundamentally incompatible with GnuRadio, but 
there are some interesting challenges in getting the right versions of 
all the build tools.

If I recall correctly, every library or tool that GnuRadio needs was 
there in the Debian unstable branch (which is where most of my machines 
point) but there were a couple of places where the default installed 
version wasn't the version GnuRadio wants.

It *can* be done, but it's likely to require a few cycles of 
compile/check error messages/ grep around to find right library or 
tool/install same/try again.
