Proper method to update GnuRadio

GNU Radio
1

Is this the proper procedure to update and re-build the GnuRadio source?
I’m
using the next branch:

sudo make uninstall
make clean
git pull
./configure
make
make check
sudo make install

I’d rather not uninstall before I have a successful build; maybe I don’t
have to. I tried make current, but there was no target for current.

Should I rebuild GnuRadio if I updated and rebuild the UHD from Ettus?

if you want it super clean you can do

git clean -dfx
./bootstrap && ./configure

git pull
./configure
make
make check
sudo make install

looks right

Usually its ok to install on top of the old install (as long as you dont
change the install prefix);

Yes, its good practice to rebuild gnuradio (or at least gr-uhd) after
rebuilding UHD. Its good to do in case there are ABI changes.
