Hello,  
I have followed the installation instructions to install GNU Radio for  
Fedora 12  
[http://gnuradio.org/redmine/wiki/1/FedoraInstall](http://gnuradio.org/redmine/wiki/1/FedoraInstall)

As described in here:  
[http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/discuss-gnuradio/2010-03/msg00139.html](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/discuss-gnuradio/2010-03/msg00139.html)

“usrp\_fft.py” and many other python scripts will not run. I have  
repeated the installation from GNU Radio form source (via git) but got  
the same results.

All dependencies seems OK but clearly there is something wrong. The  
problem could be with GNU Radio or with some dependencies. Or maybe  
with Fedora being on a Macbook 64 bit. I have spent several days on  
google and reading around but I am still lost.

May I please ask the people behind the GNU Radio development for an  
advise on what to do in this case?

Best regards,  
Fabrizio

Sorry, no experience with your configuration (although I run 64-bit  
F12 on Linux), but from the backtrace it looks like the problem is in  
the wx or wxPython library (somewhere).

Does “make check” work?

Does this work:

$ python

> > > import wx

Does any non-GNU Radio wxPython app work?

Eric,  
thanks for your reply.

$ python

> > > import wx

returns no error. As far as I can tell wx libs are installed.  
Out of desperation I am trying to compile boost lib and see what  
happens…  
If you have any idea please let me know.

regards,
