Hi,
I’ve tried to install gnuradio in Ubuntu 12.04. It is not working. it’s
saying “you do not appear to have rtl-sdr directory”. I did my best to
solve it, but I failed.
I went through the “build-gnuradio” script which is currently on
gnuradio website. The installation sequence tells that the rtl-sdr and
gr-osmosdr are fetched. But it seems that the “function rtl_build” does
not start, does not build. with that I was not able to use UHD devices.
Then I used the old build-gnuradio script that I downloaded in February.
This has nothing to do with rtl-sdr and gr-osmosdr. But I switched back
to Ubuntu 11.10, and I modified the “function firmware” in the script.
The installation worked, but here I don’t have the updates (gr-baz and
grextras).
Could you please help me understand why the current build-gnuradio
script is failing to start rtl-sdr.
Best regards.

Probably because something went wrong during the GIT download.
Try running with -v, which produces more verbose output
