Installation issues with gnuradio on Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit

Hello,

I’m having some issues when I attempt to install gnuradio on a computer
running Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit. I followed the installation guide on the
Ettus
wiki (using the “Releases/Bugfixes” path)
(http://code.ettus.com/redmine/ettus/projects/uhd/wiki/GNURadio_Linux)
but
when I run the command gnuradio-config-info I get an error message
stating:

gnuradio-config-info: error while loading shared libraries:
libboost_program_options.so.1.48.0: cannot open shared object file: No
such
file or directory.

I’m not very experienced with gnuradio or linux, but it looks like when
I
apt-get install gnuradio, the libboost packages being downloaded are
version
1.46, but when I run my command it is looking for version 1.48. Is there
a
way I can work around this? As I said, I’m not really familiar with
apt-get
or gnuradio in general. Any help you can provide would be very much
appreciated!

Try:

sudo apt-get remove --purge libboost*
sudo apt-get install libboost1.48-all-dev

You may then have to install gnuradio and uhd again, since they depend
on
boost:

sudo apt-get install gnuradio uhd

Very Respectfully,

Thanks so much for the quick response! So I tried running the first set
of
commands that remove and re-install libboost, and as you predicted that
had
the effect of uninstalling gnuradio. So I ran:

sudo apt-get install gnuradio uhd

This gives me the following error message (excerpted from a much longer
string):

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested
an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution
that
some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of
Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
uhd : Depends: libboost-all-dev but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages

I confirmed that I am indeed using the uhd_stable repos. Beyond that I’m
not
sure what to do.
