Has anyone built 3.5.1 release and UHD 3.3.2 on OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
yet?

Hi Ed - I build from their respective GIT masters, not from those
specific releases; but, yes, they seem to work for me. I use CMake for
both, since (1) GNU autotools is on the way out; and (2) it works better
(e.g., I don’t have to disable Volk). - MLD

Hi Arturo - I believe that if you use MacPorts to install the background
dependencies – just do “sudo port install gnuradio”, and then, hours
later, you can remove the installed GNU Radio / usrp ports, if any
actually got installed. You’ll need to install CMake too, since the
current GR ports still use GNU Autotools. You should then be able to
use CMake to build GNU Radio from the GIT master on OSX 10.7.3. I’m
still using 10.6.8, but I know others who’ve used 10.7 and had success.
Getting the dependencies to install is the tricky part, as always 
Give it a whirl, good luck, and please do let me/the list know if you
have issues. - MLD

Hi guys,
On OSX 10.6.8 I did the following:
$ git clone git://code.ettus.com/ettus/uhd.git
$ cd uhd
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake …/
$ make
$ sudo make install
$ cd…
$ git clone git://gnuradio.org/gnuradio
$ cd gnuradio
$ mkdir build
$ cd build cmake …/
…

Hi Carles - That’s great to hear! I take it that you don’t have WX
installed? Using the QtGui really is nicer anyway But, having
gnuradio-companion is also nice … maybe there is some other dependency
that isn’t getting met for GRC? - MLD

Did you use MacPorts for the background dependencies? If so, you can
install one of the py*-pygtk, e.g., “sudo port install py27-gtk” for
Python 2.7 (which is what I use). I find that on OSX, Python 2.6 play
nice with GNU Radio or GRC, but 2.7 does; YMMV. - MLD

Hmm … not sure what’s going on. When you’re in Python, can you do
“import gtk” successfully? That’s what CMake is testing for, roughly.
If it can’t, hopefully the error will shed some light as to what’s going
on. - MLD
Thanks for the hint. It seems that there is a problem with the
libfreetype library:
$ python
Python 2.7.2 (default, Jan 21 2012, 15:35:05)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3)] on darwin
Type “help”, “copyright”, “credits” or “license” for more information.
import gtk
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “”, line 1, in
File
“/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/init.py”,

from gtk import _gtk
ImportError:
dlopen(/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/_gtk.so,

Referenced from:
/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/_gtk.so
Reason: Incompatible library version: _gtk.so requires version
15.0.0 or later, but libfreetype.6.dylib provides version 14.0.0
I will try to fix this. I will post the solution in case of success,
maybe can be useful to others.
Best regards,
Carles
It looks like you have a mixed install, somehow, of MacPorts stuff; some
older, some newer. If you haven’t done it recently, I’d recommend:
sudo port selfupdate
sudo port upgrade outdated
and, if that breaks, do:
sudo port clean outdated
sudo port -p upgrade outdated
and then report the issues on a MP ticket if a search on active tickets
turns up nothing. My guess is that doing the above will fit the issue.

/py27-wxpython/ doesn’t install on macports. I’ll post it on the

Second
by using autotools with /
./configure LDFLAGS=“-L/opt/local/lib” CPPFLAGS=“-I/opt/local/include”
CC=clang --disable-gr-qtgui --disable-docs/
builds the latest tarball (3.5.2.1) and i need some help for the
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH because gnuradio-companion start with an error
message though PYTHONPATH is correctly set
Third
downloaded the git version and after the usual steps with cmake, the
building crashes at the 3% with the error
/cc1: error: unrecognized command line option “-mpopcnt”

any suggest for all the three scenarios ?

Well, actually I had the gnuradio port already and I did a “sudo port
uninstall gnuradio” before all the building process. I saw that I have
py27-gtk installed but python version is 2.6.7…so I did:
$ sudo port select python python27
$ python -V
Python 2.7.2
but when I do
$ cmake …/
I stiil get
– Configuring gnuradio-companion support…
– Dependency ENABLE_GR_CORE = ON
– Dependency ENABLE_PYTHON = ON
– Dependency PYTHON_MIN_VER_FOUND = TRUE
– Dependency CHEETAH_FOUND = TRUE
– Dependency LXML_FOUND = TRUE
– Dependency PYGTK_FOUND = FALSE
– Dependency NUMPY_FOUND = TRUE
– Disabling gnuradio-companion support.
Is there any step I’m missing?
Thanks,

downloaded the latest git version and made a little progress in the
third case. I set :
export CXX=clang++
export CC=clang
and the cmake building worked ! ! !. Now i have to set the python path
correctly. GRC still doesn’t run but the python interpreter import the
gnuradio module correctly.
i removed the documentantion from building because it seems to stuck at
a certain point, and cpu(s) load is at full ! ! !
The py27-wxpython issue still remains, i’ll post a ticket on macports

There’s are a few discussions about py27-wxpython on various MP lists
right now. Seems like maybe you’re not alone. Please do search for a
ticket for: < Search – MacPorts >. I have no issue with
this port on 10.6.8, and it works correctly with 64-bit Wx!

You should be able to compile GR without LDFLAGS or CPPFLAGS, if you’ve
set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH to include “/opt/local/lib/pkgconfig”. You’ll
probably want to set CXX to clang++ (or, whatever that is called) along
with CC; I don’t think CC is actually used, but it can’t hurt to set it.
Once installed, you should be able to execute GR scripts and GRC without
resorting to the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH – the PATH and PYTHONPATH should be
sufficient.
Third

make: *** [all] Error 2
No idea, but using CMake is the way to go to get Volk working. Could be
an OSX 10.7 issue; I’m still using 10.6 though I do do testing using an
OSX 10.7 boot disk. I haven’t tried this in a while, so I’ll give it a
whirl later today or tomorrow, as time allows.
Good luck! - MLD
