>>> After pulling the latest GR code (as of Dec 1) and doing a fresh build, my ARMv7 target's ctest output for qa_volk_test_all matches what Ken attached in the first message of this thread. So there is something still going on here. Is it possible some external component needs to be updated, that is outside of what's in the GR git tree?

Hi, Tom,
I tried these steps:
- Uninstalled gnuradio (make uninstall).
- apt-get update + apt-get upgrade for my ARM7 target (Ubuntu 13.04),
which updated quite a bit of stuff.
- Deleted my gnuradio tree and re-cloned it.
- Checkout maint branch.
- Built as I have been doing.
- Same problem :(

Hi, Philip,
> Building gnuradio on an arm is silly :)
I bow to the sheer power of your A15 toolchain-rebuild cross-compile x86 prowess. :)

> I am wondering if the QA failure is relates, to the use of the hard float ABI.
For me, whenever I have tried to specify hard or soft float ABI, cmake fails. If I don't specify it, it just works...

Thanks!

Tim
