Re: Minimal install of GNU Radio without GUI, etc

Hey Jason,

since you're on Ubuntu, which essentially uses the excellent debian packaging of GNU
Radio: I honestly think updating to Ubuntu 22.04LTS and then just using apt to get GNU
Radio 3.10 is a winning move:

## Upgrade to Ubuntu 22.04
# all as root
apt update
apt install update-manager-core
apt dist-upgrade
apt autoremove
# remove the -d after 2022-04-14
do-release-upgrade -d
# follow on-screen directions, reboot: you got Ubuntu 22.04

In the freshly set up Ubuntu 22.04

sudo apt install \
libgnuradio-{fft,digital,analog,blocks,filter,fec,network,channels,dtv,soapy,audio}3.10.1


(remove what you don't need from the {})

Cheers,
Marcus
