Hello,

I will be willing to help when I get setup and comfortable with the 
debian build system.

I noticed gnuradio included in the debian archive but it is for one of 
the older releases of debian.

Sometimes I wonder if I should use kbuntu instead of debian but I 
consider kbuntu and ubuntu more as live cd distributions.
