Hi all,
I have been experimenting with gnuradio about 2y ago and everything went
just
fine.
Now I’m trying for about 5 days to get it to work again.
Configure, check, compile and install go through fine.
Just whatever I try, I can’t get grc running. I always get the message
about
checking PYTHONPATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
I installed gnuradio to /usr/local because one lib insists to be there.
When
changing the prefix to /usr, building fails.
OS11.4 has python at /usr/lib/python2.6 and /usr/lib/python2.7 as well
as
/usr/lib64/python2.6 and /usr/lib64/python2.7
I tried setting PYTHONPATH to /usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages,
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages,/usr/local/lib64/python2.6/site-
packages and /usr/local/lib64/python2.7/site-packages.
No success at all. python -c “from gnuradio import gr” always fails.
Can anybody give me some hints on this?

Try “locate gnuradio/init.py”.

Another issue is that if you’d installed Gnu Radio from a
distribution-packaged instance, the
dynamic linker will find its shared-libraries first, which can
cause incompatibilities between
the python code (that was presumably found through the GIT-installed
stuff), and the
probably-obsolete-the-moment-they-were-hatched “packaged” libraries.
It’s instructive to (assuming your PYTHONPATH is set correctly):
python
from gnuradio import gr
That will either barf or not. The details of that barf are
instructive in intuiting what’s wrong.

Normally, the installer places the relevant .so files (the ones that
Python will dynamically load
into itself) right next to the relevant Python files.
Does your PYTHONPATH include both /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages
and /usr/local/lib64/python2.7/site-packages?
I still didn’t get grc running. PYTHONPATH includes both of the
directories.
Could it be a requirement that all the files are in the same dir? Maybe
some
absolute or half-absolute path settings in one of the python modules?

OK, so there’s also supposed to be a .so and .la file along with
those, so something bad happened
either during generation of those library files during the build, or
during the install.
For comparison, here’s what mine looks like:

Unfortunately, the Gnuradio “make install” Installer
is a bit buggy. It distributes python libs between
the lib64 and lib folders. Python cannot handle this chaos,
even with both directories in PYTHONPATH.
I solved it by creating a symlink before installing:
ln -s /usr/local/lib64/python2.7/ /usr/local/lib/python2.7
Apparently, Gnuradio is the only app that wrote to
/usr/local/lib/python2.7,
because this directory didn’t exist before (pure 64 Bit operating
system).
After symlinking, the “make install” effectively writes all into
a single destination and Python finds all dependencies.
I never understood, why this Linux introduced the lib64 folders.
Why not keeping the 64 Bit code in the lib standard location
and put all legacy 32 bit code in lib32 folders?
Do other Linux distributions handle this in a different way?

Other Redhat family distros seem to do it the same way opensuse does.
Ubantu on 64 bit machines has a lib32 and lib, lib64 is just a symbolic
link to lib. I think that makes tons of sense:

Do
Fedora also uses the /usr/local/lib64 thing for 64-bit platforms, but
the Gnu Radio installer
works just fine on Fedora x86_64 platforms [at least F12 through F14,
which I’ve tested
over the last year or two].
There must be something in the setup of a OpenSuse 64-bit system that
confuses “configure”, since
that’s where, ultimately, the makefiles get their information from.
Or, perhaps “Fedora” and “x86_64” are special-cased in configure, and a
similar special case doesn’t
exist for OpenSuse?
Regardless, I suspect the answer lies in either “bootstrap” or
“configure” getting slightly confused on
an OpenSuse system.

Hi,
Just a side note: In my system (OpenSuse11.2 x86_64) I had to slightly
modify the symlink to
ln -s /usr/local/lib64/python2.7 /usr/local/lib/
best regards,
Pedro Ignacio Martos

I confirm that this solves the issue!
After creating the symlink and re-installing, grc runs fine, as does the
rest.
Thanks a lot!
