Ok, so it looks like you've copied the source into your build
directory or something. At least, there's something wrong with your
directories, the location of the source code, or where you're building
from.

Make sure that the source code is checked out into ~/src/gnuradio.
Then follow these steps:

$ cd ~/src/gnuradio
$ rm -rf build
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug" ../

That's just to make absolutely certain your build directory isn't in
some confusing state.
