Greetings, I am trying to install the latest gnuradio using pybombs. I am running linux mint on an amd64 machine. Here is the terminal output, basically it just keeps repeating the same thing, and then finally kicks me back to the prompt: office:~ \> cd pybombs office:~/pybombs \> ./pybombs install gnuradio Settled on prefix: /home/alneale/target Initializing environmental variables… no existing inventory found, creating an empty one… Loading recipes … /home/office/target Installing packages: - uhd - pycairo - bison - flex - libevent - apache-thrift - liblog4cpp - gnuradio Installing from source: uhd no existing inventory found, creating an empty one… Using gitcache at ~/target Too many arguments.

1. when reporting pybombs problems, please turn up the verbosity with “-v -v -v” 2. it sounds like your git cache is somehow incorrectly configured. How did you configure it? Does it exist? Again, verbose logging is your friend.
