Re: GNU Radio 3.8 and Centos 7: Is it possible?

[Nick Foster]

Having been down this road a ways, I can recommend using Docker, if you value your time and sanity.

$ docker run -ti bistromath/gnuradio:v3.8 bash -l

If you want GRC to work you'll have to do a bit of monkeying. It'll be different for Centos because everything is, but here's a starting point.

Hi All,

Has anyone out there been able to install GNU Radio 3.8 on Centos 7? I have gotten close compiling from source, but ultimately ran into a segmentation fault when running gnuradio-companion.  The gdb output was not really helpful. Frame 1 said "Cannot access memory at address 0x170e70>) at /usr/include/string.h". I'm guessing something is wonky with the library linking due to the piecemeal dependency resolution I had to do. When running the cmake command I get a few "Cannot generate a safe runtime search path for target because files in some directories may conflict with libraries in implicit directories" errors. Perhaps that's related. I've had a very difficult time installing dependencies since some of the most recent versions are not available via yum. I've had luck using Anaconda (conda), but that's contributed to the linking issues since the old version is installed somewhere in /usr/ and the newest version is under the Anaconda prefix.

I got absolutely nowhere with pybombs.

Is this a doomed endeavor? 

Thanks,

Andrew
