Nick, A little more information.

I try to do the next step (add recipes) and I get the following:
address@hidden:~$ pybombs recipes add gr-recipes git+https://github.com/gnuradio/gr-recipes.git
bash: /usr/local/bin/pybombs: Permission denied

Looking at that binary, it has permissions 700.  I chmod it to 755 and rerun and get:
address@hidden:~$ pybombs recipes add gr-recipes git+https://github.com/gnuradio/gr-recipes.git
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/pybombs", line 11, in <module>
    load_entry_point('PyBOMBS==2.2.0', 'console_scripts', 'pybombs')()

  File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2603, in load_entry_point
ImportError: Entry point ('console_scripts', 'pybombs') not found

If I run the command with sudo, it seems to work, but I assume that that is not a good practice, right?

Nick,

I spoke with IT and I was mistaken on the "script" version of sudo.  What is really going on is that we use centrify's dzdo as sudo.  They just made a wrapper so that users can call sudo like usual and dzdo gets called under the hood.  So the sudo //should// be pretty normal.

I went to the look you sent me and ran the command: curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | python.  I get the following error back:

Trying it with sudo returns the same errors.  My solution to get it to install was to sudo su -, and install it from there.  Supposedly it has something to do with sudo forking the command back to the user or something (this level of admining is over my head; but I wonder if something different is going on in 16.04 that was previously allowed in 14.04 for me).  I then exited out of sudo su, and ran sudo pip install pybombs and that worked.  Now I am going to continue down the path and see if I can get further along.

Sorry for all the issues, but thanks for piping up.

Hey Jason,

That's interesting... I was expecting it to prove your user saw a different version of setuptools than running sudo.  I think there's still evidence that may be the case, but I'm not sure.

I think your best bet for building gnuradio on your non-vanilla machine is to start from scratch assuming you do not have sudo privileges.

Assuming you have a reasonable python installed, you should be able to install pip using this.


Then pip install pybombs

Then use pybombs

However, if your ultimate goal is to work with your IT to get to the root of your bizzaro OS problems, then I would 
1. Do a pybombs install using your initial set of commands on a truly vanilla ubuntu (to prove that it works and to give your IT something to compare with the broken system).
2. Follow these same steps on your non-vanilla ubuntu to reproduce your error.
3. Dump the problem on your IT telling them to solve whatever permissions and system path problems they need to solve to make system 2 behave like system 1.


Cheers,
Nick M.

Nick,

Thank you for the info.  I've uninstalled pybombs everywhere, so I should be "clean" again.

I tried running your two easy_install commands and got an unexpected result:
address@hidden:~/Downloads$ easy_install --version
usage: easy_install [options] requirement_or_url ...
   or: easy_install --help

error: invalid command 'easy_install'
address@hidden:~/Downloads$ sudo easy_install --version
setuptools 28.3.0 from /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (Python 2.7)

I sort of figured that the non-sudo version would give some sort of result based on your email.  Does this tell us something?

Thanks!

So.... If I look at sys.path in python, I do see
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
(and I didn't do anything special to make this happen.)

Also, which pybombs points to
/usr/local/bin/pybombs

And my install location for pybombs is
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages

From the standpoint of a fresh install (which you certainly no longer have), I think the problem comes in when you fail to have permissions on the pybombs bin... I suspect that's something to do with your weird sudo script and not pip or pybombs, but I'm not sure.  

If you could get back to the state you were in after your initial attempt to install, I'd like to know the value of your sys.path in python.  

Right now, you have a frankenbuild for pybombs thanks to running sudo with the --user flag... I would uninstall that, for sure and get to where you have no pybombs installed anywhere.

So... as for why you can't pip install pybombs (no sudo)... this has to be a setuptools thing. 

Maybe try
easy_install --version
and
sudo easy_install --version

to see if there's a difference.  Because your sudo is broken, you may have to do a lot of "sudo which blah" and "which blah" to find out what your problem is.

You can probably try an install without any sudo use by first sudo apt-get remove --purge pip and then downloading and using get-pip.py.  Then just pip install pybombs (no flags, no sudo, no nothing)... and try that one.

Cheers,
Nick M.

Hi Nick!
I did.  When I run it I get:

I am not on a thin client, I am on a fresh load of 16.04 on an actual PC.  I do believe that sudo isn't actually sudo, but a script.  That said, I wasn't having sudo issues before I reloaded my machine (which was running 14.04).

Thanks!

Jason, did you try 
pip install --upgrade setuptools

as a first step?  Are you running on a special setup such as a patchwork virtual machine being served to you on a thinclient with f**ed permissions?

Cheers,
Nick M.

I am still stuck at this stage. Assuming I am dead in the water, what is the next best (approved) way of installing GnuRadio?  Doing it by hand from the github clone?
