Hi Michael,

there’s already a macports bug for that:  
[https://trac.macports.org/ticket/43445](https://trac.macports.org/ticket/43445)  
and it seems that Michael D. (the GNU Radio Macports maintainer)  
has proposed a solution.  
Could you try that? (and maybe the port clean --all gnuradio; selfupate;  
install gnuradio first)

Greetings,  
Marcus

Hi Michael - I think this must be an oddity of the way MacPorts is doing  
binary (distfiles or pre-compiled tarball) distribution. You can get  
around the issue by manually downloading a valid distfile tarball into  
the correct location – this is my work-around in the ticket Marcus  
mentions. That said, if “gnuradio-devel” is working for you, then I’d  
recommend using it since it contains a lot of fixes after the 3.7.3  
release. If you do try the work-around, I’d love to get feedback on  
if/how it works for you. - MLD
