Re: New install of GNU Radio executes old version

Hi Jim,

I've found a cheat sheet on installing on the Pi. It's available at
https://www.radiosrs.net/installing_uhd_gnuradio.html . When I
originally read it I thought it said you'd need to build libuhd from
scratch, but it appears upon closer inspection that there are packages
for libuhd. Yay!

In short the author suggests,

sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends libuhd4.2.0 libuhd-dev

to install UHD on the Pi. If you have patience to try yet another
build, try installing those packages and see if it fixes the build
error. (As you can see from the error it's happening with a Qt Rfnoc
file.) You'll have to ...

cd /home/pi/gnuradio
rm -rf build
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
-DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python3 ../
make -j4
sudo make install

again, but my hope is with the libuhd4.2.0 and libuhd-dev packages,
your error will go away.

Don't feel bad if you are tired of builds and want to install your
backup instead, I understand this has been a frustrating experience.
However, I do hope you get the source build to work.

Best regards,

Chris
