Re: unable to execute new installation

The script now executes from the terminal but still not from the GUI.

However, the version that executes is the old 3.9.4.0 not the 3.10.11 that I
installed. Following is the result of execution from the terminal:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cd gnuradio/grc/scripts
pi@raspberrypi:~/gnuradio/grc/scripts $ python3 gnuradio-companion
Running from source tree
Could not retrieve GNU Radio configuration directory from GNU Radio. Trying
defaults.
Could not retrieve GNU Radio persistent state directory from GNU Radio.
Trying defaults.
Using legacy state path '/home/pi/.grc_gnuradio'. Please consider moving
state files to '/home/pi/.local/state/gnuradio'.

I don't understand what is happening.
How can I execute the new version and also how can I get the GUI to execute
it at all?
Have I somehow installed it in the wrong place? I have never before
installed from source - I always installed using apt-get install.
Does the old version need to be uninstalled? If so, how do I do that?

I used the instructions "InstallingGRFromSource on Raspberry Pi" from the
Wiki.

There is a typo in #7513, the correct fix is #7514
