Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] 3.6.4.2 test fail

[Nemanja Savic]

Ok, thank you Tom, I'll try with installing. All this mess about version came cause I need to implement message passing, and thus I designed two blocks, message receiver and mesage sender. Si, the blocks are pretty simple, but I have following error when running:

  File "/usr/local/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/test/msg_sender.py", line 33, in __init__
    out_sig=[None])

and this at the end of traceback:
TypeError: data type not understood

Because of this I assume that my version doesn't support this kind of python blocks. How can I check that?

There are file_metadata_sink and _source blocks that save/read data to
files with added metadata headers. There's a page in the manual to
describe them:
http://gnuradio.org/doc/doxygen/page_metadata.html

If you're not using them and don't plan to, then you shouldn't worry
about those failed QA tests. Or you could simply patch them to get rid
of the calls to assertGreater and you'll be ok, too.
