Hi everyone,

I downloaded and built GNU Radio from [sbrac.org](http://sbrac.org), and it operates  
normally. The only problem is that when I am searching for any WX GUI  
Widgets, I can only see WX GUI Static Text, WX GUI Time Panel and WX DOA  
Compass. Based on a previous discussion on that mailing list I also  
installed WXPython (2.8) but the problem remains.

Any ideas?

Thank you,  
Nikos

Most probably, the log file that was generated during your GNU Radio  
compilation contains more information; it’s called CMakeOutput.log and  
should be in /gnuradio/build/CMakeFiles/

Also, the output of “gnuradio-config-info -v --enabled-components” would  
be interesting.

Marcus

Hi Marcus,

it’s probably remains from an older installation attempt I had made  
(using Pybombs), which failed. After that I used that script and it  
worked like a charm. So if I would just do a “./build-gnuradio” from my  
installation directory in order to build again, it would probably work,  
right?

Thanks for your help,  
Nikos

Hi eveyone again,

as an update to the issue I was facing, I re-built GNU Radio, just as  
Marcus suggested, but I still can’t see the WX GUI Widgets in the  
Companion.

I can see the gr-wxgui folder in my gnuradio tree, but apparantly it is  
still not built along with the rest of the project, and I don’t know  
what to do to make it work.

Thank you all,  
Nikos

Ah, ok; my mistake; the “–enabled-components” option was just added  
recently; getting your GNU Radio version would be nice, nevertheless, so  
could you run “gnuradio-config-info -v” ?  
The CMakeOutput.log contained less info than I hoped; you should have a  
look into /home/nikos/gnuradio/build/CMakeCache.txt. That will contain  
the information about installed libraries and available GNU Radio  
components. The line you’re looking for starts with ENABLE\_GR\_WXGUI.

I think the easiest way to go from here is to cd into  
/home/nikos/gnuradio/build. You will see CMake go through all the GNU  
Radio in-tree modules, and test for the dependencies of each of them.  
Look for the paragraph related to the gr-wxgui component. Most probably,  
it will tell you what is missing.

Can you also share your Linux distro and version with us (as per  
/etc/issue)?

The point is that as far as I can guess, build-gnuradio wasn’t able to  
automatically install all necessary libraries. For most systems, it can,  
but some are just unknown to it or have seen modifications, so that  
auto-installation is bound to fail.

Marcus

“gnuradio-config-info -v --enabled-components” results in an  
unrecognized option error for --enabled-components. I have attached the  
log you asked me for.

My GNU Radio version is 3.7.6.1 and my system runs Ubuntu release  
14.04.2 LTS.

I chekced the file you asked me for and the line in question is:  
“ENABLE\_GR\_WXGUI\_cached:INTERNAL=OFF”, so just as it was guessed it is  
disabled. But how can I enable it?

Hi Nikos

I downloaded and built GNU Radio from [sbrac.org](http://sbrac.org)  
ah, ok, I presume that means you used Marcus L.'s build-gnuradio  
script.  
The only problem is that when I am searching for any WX GUI Widgets, I  
can only see WX GUI Static Text, WX GUI Time Panel and WX DOA Compass.  
As you’ve already found out, this probably means that some dependencies  
were missing.  
In fact, of the three you list, only the static text widget is part of  
GNU Radio itself, so what you’re seeing is possibly remains of an older  
installation. Are you sure you don’t have any gnuradio package from your  
linux distribution installed?  
Based on a previous discussion on that mailing list I also installed  
WXPython (2.8) but the problem remains.  
Did you re-build GNU Radio after that? Otherwise, the GUI blocks could  
not have been built, and installed.

Most probably, the log file that was generated during your GNU Radio  
compilation contains more information; it’s called CMakeOutput.log and  
should be in /gnuradio/build/CMakeFiles/

Also, the output of “gnuradio-config-info -v --enabled-components” would  
be interesting.

Marcus

Nice! Now, running

make -j\<number of cpu cores + 1\>  
sudo make install

in that same directory should install GNU Radio with gr-wxgui.

Apparently module libzmq was missing, so I installed it. Now the  
relevant paragraph when I am running cmake is:

Configuring gr-wxgui support…  
– Dependency ENABLE\_GNURADIO\_RUNTIME = ON  
– Dependency ENABLE\_GR\_FFT = ON  
– Dependency ENABLE\_GR\_FILTER = ON  
– Dependency ENABLE\_GR\_ANALOG = ON  
– Dependency ENABLE\_PYTHON = ON  
– Dependency NUMPY\_FOUND = TRUE  
– Dependency WX\_FOUND = TRUE  
– Enabling gr-wxgui support.  
– Override with -DENABLE\_GR\_WXGUI=ON/OFF  
– checking for module ‘libzmq’  
– found libzmq, version 2.2.0  
– Found ZEROMQ: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libzmq.so

which probably means it would be ok, but I can’t see the WX GUI  
components yet.  
Should I re-build GNU Radio?

I don’t know, that’s why I’d like to recommend running cmake yourself:

Then look for the gr-wxgui paragraph.

Ah, ok; my mistake; the “–enabled-components” option was just added  
recently; getting your GNU Radio version would be nice, nevertheless, so  
could you run “gnuradio-config-info -v” ?  
The CMakeOutput.log contained less info than I hoped; you should have a  
look into /home/nikos/gnuradio/build/CMakeCache.txt. That will contain  
the information about installed libraries and available GNU Radio  
components. The line you’re looking for starts with ENABLE\_GR\_WXGUI.

I think the easiest way to go from here is to cd into  
/home/nikos/gnuradio/build. You will see CMake go through all the GNU  
Radio in-tree modules, and test for the dependencies of each of them.  
Look for the paragraph related to the gr-wxgui component. Most probably,  
it will tell you what is missing.

Can you also share your Linux distro and version with us (as per  
/etc/issue)?

The point is that as far as I can guess, build-gnuradio wasn’t able to  
automatically install all necessary libraries. For most systems, it can,  
but some are just unknown to it or have seen modifications, so that  
auto-installation is bound to fail.

And just for the record, ZeroMQ has /nothing/ to do with WXGUI. Whatever  
dependency was missing before has apparently been fixed – perhaps  
installing libzmq also pulled in the right deps by coincidence, but it’s  
not libzmq itself that you needed. That line “Found ZEROMQ…” is for  
the  
gr-zeromq component that would be tested next by cmake, not for the  
gr-wxgui component.

But the good news is that it’s enabling gr-wxgui support, so you’re ok.

It would be good to understand what is now missing, since the Ubuntu

Subject: Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Majority of WX GUI Widgets missing from  
Companion

Hi Nikos

I downloaded and built GNU Radio from [sbrac.org](http://sbrac.org)  
ah, ok, I presume that means you used Marcus L.'s build-gnuradio  
script.  
The only problem is that when I am searching for any WX GUI Widgets, I  
can only see WX GUI Static Text, WX GUI Time Panel and WX DOA Compass.  
As you’ve already found out, this probably means that some dependencies  
were missing.  
In fact, of the three you list, only the static text widget is part of  
GNU Radio itself, so what you’re seeing is possibly remains of an older  
installation. Are you sure you don’t have any gnuradio package from your  
linux distribution installed?  
Based on a previous discussion on that mailing list I also installed  
WXPython (2.8) but the problem remains.  
Did you re-build GNU Radio after that? Otherwise, the GUI blocks could  
not have been built, and installed.

Most probably, the log file that was generated during your GNU Radio  
compilation contains more information; it’s called CMakeOutput.log and  
should be in /gnuradio/build/CMakeFiles/

Also, the output of “gnuradio-config-info -v --enabled-components” would  
be interesting.

Greetings,  
Marcus

Hi everyone,

I downloaded and built GNU Radio from [sbrac.org](http://sbrac.org), and it operates  
normally. The only problem is that when I am searching for any WX GUI

Compass. Based on a previous discussion on that mailing list I also

Any ideas?

Thank you,
