Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Weird install problem, GR 3.7.8.1

[Johnathan Corgan]

The fix for this was already put into GNU Radio's maint and master branches, and will show up in the 3.7.8.2 and 3.7.9 releases.

If you are using git to obtain GNU Radio, you can update to get it right away.

This afternoon, I had some time to trace where the problem originated. It
seems that on some systems (mine ;) the test for isinstance(category, str)
doesn't work, as the type of category is actually 'unicode'. (This is
on Slackware 14.1 + some mods from -current).

I changed to isinstance(category, basestring), which captures both str
and unicode.

(This is around line 130 in BlockTreeWindow.py)

I've submitted a bug report for this - which was accepted.
