Gnuradio recipe in pybombs requires mcpp

GNU Radio
1

Greetings,

I just noticed that executing “./pybombs install gnuradio” on a system
that already has all the necessary dependencies starts by installing a
package called mcpp. Searching the web I found out that it is a C/C++
preprocessor from 2008…

Since gnuradio builds just fine with the standard preprocessor in gcc,
I hope we can get rid of it get rid of this dependency.

It’s an ICE dependency… the rest of GNU Radio doesn’t use it. It’s
just needed to build ICE.

Yeah, I think your right, mcpp isn’t needed in the gnuradio pybombs
recipe.

Tom,

Thanks for the info. If it is is an ICE build dependency then we can
remove it from the gnuradio recipe, yes?
Or is it also necessary for parsing and converting the gnuradio.ice
files?
