The MacPorts portfiles for GNU Radio (everything that can be compiled
on OSX except possibly qtgui) were added at the end of last week, and
reflect the 3.2 release. I'll update them to 3.2.2 "sometime real soon
now" -- not difficult, just finding the 20 solid minutes to do it &
test the changes.
Please note that the USRP (and related) port will not yet install
using just MacPorts because they changed the way libusb-legacy 0.1.12
is installed (grrr). Hopefully the MacPorts folks will come to some
sense of recognition that being able to transparently switch between
libusb-compat and libusb-legacy would be -a good thing- (i.e., not
having to change the dependent source code in any way), and update
those (respective) portfile to allow only one of them to be installed
at any given time and then any port requiring LIBUSB (not 1.0) would
still work correctly via either one being installed. I'm still
arguing the case to them ...
This restriction on libusb filenames can easily be overcome either by
setting the USB environment variables, or changing the usrp_libusb.m4
file to check for both "libusb.pc" and "libusb-legacy.pc". Again,
I'll get to this change "real soon now". In the mean time, you can
always install LIBUSB 0.1.12 from source in the usual way & that will
work.
I'll send an update when these issues are fixed in the MacPorts
release. - MLD
