Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Weird install problem, GR 3.7.8.1

[Frederick E. Stevens]

John,

Thank you for the fix.  I created a patch for the gnuradio.SlackBuild 
and re-built gnuradio.  No more strange menus.  Everything else seems to 
be working just fine.  The patch was added to the SlackBuild just after 
the line:
cd $PRGNAM-$VERSION

with the following line:
patch -p0 <$CWD/BlockTreeWindow.py.patch

Sorry for the weird patch.  It works, that's all.

Thanks again!

Fred
