Are errors expected on the first attempt of cmake or could the errors indicate an underlying dependency issue? I have other build issues and I’m trying to rule out all the possibilities. When I first attempt cmake I get errors: – Using install prefix: /usr/local – Building for version: 3.5.1git-11-gfc6151d4 / 3.5.1git – Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! If I simply run cmake again it finishes without complaint: – Using install prefix: /usr/local – Building for version: 3.5.1git-11-gfc6151d4 / 3.5.1git – Configuring done – Generating done – Build files have been written to: /home/gr/source/git/gnuradio/build I’m working off the master branch (just pulled the latest, though I’ve seen this on each version I’ve used in the last week): $ git status # On branch master nothing to commit (working directory clean) [jrford@dodeca gnuradio]$ git show commit fc6151d4516ee86b697602014b83fb08a88c30f0 Merge: 89f934b fa161e1 Author: Tom R.

Cant tell. You gotta attach the whole verbose. -josh ---

Well that looks like the problem. So, I didnt see that code in my findboost.cmake. Which means either you have a findboost with a bug, and/or this is a code path that does not get exercised much but is now because you are manually setting the library/include dir to something custom. I attached the findboost.cmake from my system in case that helps. -Josh
