Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] GNU Radio - GNSS SDR Installation

[Nicolas Cuervo Benavides]

Hi Berat,

I might be wrong, but it appears to be an autotools problem, as it doesn't seem to find the aclocal. You can try running:

sudo apt-get install autotools-dev
sudo apt-get install automake


maybe you'd have to install also aclocal via apt-get. I tried installing the gnss recipe via pybombs and it worked fine (I had already the autotools installed). Tell if after installing this and reinstalling the recipe your build is complete.

Also, regarding the icon, I don't think it is a good idea to have icons for gnuradio-companion installed via pybombs. If you are developing using different pybombs containers, you'd like to know which installation are you using for each of the containers that you are working with, and that's why you have different prefixes that are also completely independent with each other (and that is the reason why also you'd have to install gnuradio in every prefix if you intend to use it separately). If you really want desktop icons and such, one thing you could do is install the gnuradio on your system using the build script, which I believe already includes the icons generation [1]. But keep in mind that if you have different gnuradio installations for your prefixes, it may get confusing for you and the machine. If you choose this path you may also want to desable the gnuradio dependency for every recipe that install on pybombs, so that it points to the one installed on the system.

I may be mistaken, but I'd consider running it from the shell every time after setting up the environment. Sounds easier to me.

Regards,

Nicolas

Dear Berat,

looks like you have forgot the attachment... could we see the errors you get when building gnss-sdr?

Best regards,

Carles

Hi Nicolas,

After typing "$ gnuradio-companion" on Terminal, I could start using gnu radio. Thank you. The only problem is that I dont have any shortcut on desktop and still there is no icon on "search your computer"  but it is okay.  

Also, to install gnss-sdr I typed " pybombs install gnss-sdr" 
but I got an error shown on the file attached to the mail. Do you know what is missing for that?

Regards,

Hi Berat,

Could you tell us what type of failure are you getting? You could copy and paste the error here to the mailing list.

Also, after sourcing the setup_env.sh you should be able to run the in the same shell the following command:

   $  gnuradio-companion

to open the grc. Are you able to?

Best regards,

Nicolas

Hi all,

I am a beginner user of USRP N210 for GNSS SDR applications. Yesterday, I tried to install GNU Radio on ubuntu via PyBombs. The instructions I have typed on Terminal are below:

$ sudo apt-get install git python-pip

$ sudo pip install git+https://github.com/gnuradio/pybombs.git

$ pybombs recipes add gr-recipes git+https://github.com/gnuradio/gr-recipes.git
$ pybombs recipes add gr-etcetera git+https://github.com/gnuradio/gr-etcetera.git

$ pybombs prefix init /home/computer/sdr -a myprefix -R gnuradio-default

As far as I tracked on Terminal all dependiances were installed succesfully.  Then I typed the code below to setup everything for GNU Radio Companion.

$ cd /home/computer/sdr
$ . ./setup_env.sh

The README file of the gnss-sdr says after that code I would be able to use GRC. However, I couldn't find any desktop icon or gnu radio related executable program on computer.

Still, I tried to continue installation and typed gnss-sdr install code:

$ pybombs install gnss-sdr

It downloaded a few packages and then tried to build them. However, it ended up with a failure.

As far as I understood I did a mistake for set up of the downloaded files. So, what do you think I should do?

Thank you very much in advance,

Best regards,
