Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Errors using PyBombs recipe for RFNoC setup

[Andrew Lanez]

Well, I wiped everything clearn and started from a fresh image of Linux to remove any doubt (3rd time doing this). This time I made sure to do sudo apt-get update liberally before running pybombs prefix init ~/rfnoc -R rfnoc -a alias

The first time it showed boost failed to install even though the Installation progress bar showed 100%.

I discovered that if I delete the ~/rfnoc directory I can rerun pybombs prefix init ~/rfnoc -R rfnoc -a alias without errors. So everytime I do that now I persistently get:

Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.19-0ubuntu6.9) ...
PyBOMBS.Fetcher.wget - ERROR - hostname 'download.qt.io' doesn't match either of '*.qt-project.org', 'qt-project.org', 'www.qt-project.org'
PyBOMBS.Packager.source - ERROR - Problem occurred while building package qt4:
Unable to fetch recipe qt4
PyBOMBS.install_manager - ERROR - Error installing package qt4. Aborting.

What can I do about this?

I just ran sudo apt-get. That might fix the other non-showstopper errors earlier. But I am not sure where to start to address that last error which is the show stopper:

checking for BASE_DEPENDENCIES... no
configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.25.10    atk >= 1.29.2    pango >= 1.20    cairo >= 1.6    gdk-pixbuf-2.0 >= 2.21.0) were not met:

No package 'atk' found
No package 'pango' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables BASE_DEPENDENCIES_CFLAGS
and BASE_DEPENDENCIES_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
PyBOMBS.Packager.source - ERROR - Configuration failed after running at least twice.

I tried running the same pybombs command and got:
$ pybombs prefix init ~/rfnoc -R rfnoc -a alias
PyBOMBS - INFO - PyBOMBS Version 2.2.0
PyBOMBS.prefix - ERROR - Ignoring. A prefix already exists in `/home/switchlanez/rfnoc'

So I took out what might be prefix-related stuff but these didn't work:
$ pybombs -R rfnoc -a alias
$ pybombs rfnoc -a alias
$ pybombs rfnoc

How do I properly rerun the pybombs script?
