Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] about building gnuradio on mac os x lion behind a firewall

[Michael Dickens]

Hi swrangsar - I'm the MacPorts maintainer for the GNU Radio related ports.  
MacPorts can install all of this (GNU Radio, UHD, osmosdr for RTL devices), and 
should work correctly with Mac OS X Lion.  I generally recommend against 
simultaneously using MacPorts and any other means of installing dependencies 
(e.g., via Homebrew of Fink), but this can be made to work.  I would have 
expected Homebrew and Fink to provide a GNU Radio and UHD install, too, so 
maybe that is worth looking into.  If you do decide to use MacPorts, and have 
issues, send me an email off-list and I'll help you work through the issues.  
Good luck! - MLD
