Hello Discuss list this is Lee M here.
I am looking for a suggestion of the best version of the boost library
that compiles and links on a 64 bit Ubuntu 12.04 computer with the
current stable version of gnuradio.
I seem to be seeing a name interpretation problem.
During the "make", an error says can't find a boost file and the boost
file name looks mangled. Since only one compile failed, I used "make -k"
and then forced the install with another make -f install or whatever.
Second, running the dial_tone.py test results in a traceback that looks
like swig_import_helper_mod is bad.
I am trying to get gnuradio running with the rtl-sdr and the related
drivers for use with a Terratec T-stick. I want to receive amateur radio
and tune in VHF and UHF frequencies.
I am compiling gnuradio on a 64 bit laptop running Ubuntu 12.04. I
am using boost version 1.53.0 that has been downloaded, unpacked,
compiled and installed as /opt/boost_1_53_0 as best as I can follow the
README.building-boost.
The gnuradio make instruction compiles with one failure and I tried
forcing the processs with make -k "keep going".
The part of the process I have not been able to figure out is how is
usage of boost on a 64 bit computer creating problems that do not appear
on a 32 bit computer?
The build-gnuradio script doesn't quite work on a 64 bit laptop. It
appears to me that build-gnuradio doesn't work because apt-get downloads
a boost version 46 (with some misleading pieces labeled boost 48.
I'll add, about 2 months ago build-gnuradio worked like gangbusters on
a 32-bit Ubuntu Compaq laptop. I had set my wife up with this 64 bit
Gateway laptop and she called it a dog and asked to swap.
I copied build-gnuradio and the entire resulting directory over to my
64 bit laptop with rsync. Build-gnuradio doesn't have a version number
that I know of.
Thanks very much for a suggestion.
Cordially yours, Lee M
