Hi!

address@hidden:~$ gnuradio-config-info

ImportError: libboost_system.so.1.58.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

This means that the gnuradio-config-info was definitely built with another version of boost (1.58) than what is found at the moment you start it.

This is what I thought too but  sudo find / -name "libboost*" only finds libraries for boost 1.46 and 1.48.

The point about distributions is that they strive to keep all their libraries coherent in one release. So, although the install script might have installed the modern boost version correctly and set up some paths so that on your first PC, linux knows where to look for boost 1.58, on the other, this won't work automatically.
You can find out where the libboost_system.so.1.58.0 is on the system where it works by running "ldd $(which gnuradio-config-info)".

The system works but win a Gnuradio installed from the build_gnuradio script, not the debian package that I built.

So the question is: which tool did you exactly use to install GNU Radio?

I used cmake with the following parameters:
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr SYSCONFDIR=/etc -DENABLE_STATIC_LIBS=False \
-DENABLE_DOXYGEN=False -DENABLE_GR_WXGUI=OFF -DENABLE_GR_VOCODER=OFF \
-DENABLE_GR_DTV=OFF -DENABLE_GR_ATSC=OFF ..
 

If you use pyBOMBS, you get the ability to install everything, including updated versions of boost etc., into a specific private directory, and generate a script that sets up all paths accordingly. You can then just copy that prefix and script over to the other PC; that's pretty distribution agnostic, but to be honest: If you wanted to make packages for all the things that GNU Radio likes to have a bit more recent, you'd be basically producing packages for half the development libraries that GNU Radio needs -- 12.04 is 3 years old...

I wish I could upgrade my Ubuntu but I'm stack with 12.04 for other reasons. I'll try the pybombs way and also the same method for gnuradio 3.7.5 to check that I get the same error

 

Best regards,
Marcus

Thank you for your help

Thanks for that Marcus, I got around that first step.

My computer runs Ubuntu 12.04 with libboost 1.48 and it has a working gnuradio installation v3.7.7.1-120-g67463e74 from the script in the web.
I used that computer to create the debian package based on https://github.com/gnuradio/gnuradio.git tag v3.7.7 and I installed it in another Ubuntu 12.04 with libboost 1.48.
 get the following error message when running this command or any simple gnuradio script:

address@hidden:~$ gnuradio-config-info

ImportError: libboost_system.so.1.58.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I first thought that 3.7.7 must depend on libboost 1.58 but it works well with 1.48 when I use the script to install it so, how did that dependency get there?

My debian has installed files into the folders /etc, /usr/bin, /usr/lib, /usr/share, /usr/include and my control file depends on the following packages:

Depends: libfftw3-3, libpulse0, python, python-numpy, python-gtk2, python-wxgtk2.8, python-qwt5-qt4, python-lxml, python-cheetah, python-qt4, python-qwt5-qt4, libpulse0, libasound2, alsa-base, libboost-program-options1.48.0, libboost-filesystem1.48.0, libboost-thread1.48.0, libqtcore4, libsdl1.2debian, libgsl0ldbl, liborc-0.4-0, libusb-1.0-0, sdcc

I'm using

PATH = /usr/bin

LD_LIBRARY = /usr/lib

PYTHONPATH = /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/:/usr/lib/python2.7/:/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages

PKG_CONFIG_PATH = /usr/lib/pkgconfig

Could someone point me in the right direction please?

Cheers,

Murray

Hi Murray,

you'd typically do something like:

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ..

to match what debian expects.
Then, instead of simply installing stuff there, you install into your fake root directory using
make
make install DESTDIR=/home/murray/fake_root/whatever

That will only bend around the paths where files are copied to, not the paths contained in the files themselves

Best regards,
Marcus

Hi,

I need a GnuRadio debian package for version 3.7.7.1 to be installed in many different computers. I've tried creating it myself but I run into many difficulties. For example the command gnuradio-config-info --prefix --prefsdir --sysconfdir was pointing to the folder where I created the debian.

I found a package for Arch linux in
https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/gnuradio/

And I was going to try to convert it to a debian. Before I do that. Is there a repo where I can find this? Ideally gnuradio-companion (including gnuradio) version 3.7.7.1 for both x86_64 and i636 debian package that will be installed in an Ubuntu 12.04 system.

Thanks a lot,

Murray
