I installed the Gnuradio+UHD+GRC on my ubuntu this Oct, and it is  
noticed  
that there is a directory usrpm in  
the /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/.  
Today, I install all the Gnuradio+UHD on a new ubuntu (11.10) PC, just  
using the script from [http://www.sbrac.org/files/build-gnuradio](http://www.sbrac.org/files/build-gnuradio) and then  
installed the gnuradio-companion.  
Seems everything is ok, such as uhd\_find\_device can find the connected  
USRP  
N210, the gnuradio-companion can be initiated without any errors.  
However, I can not find the /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/usrpm  
any longer. I am wondering what is this usrpm for and did I miss  
something  
necessary during my installation?

In version 3.5, we deprecated all libUSRP(2) code and interfaces (  
[http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/ChangeSets](http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/ChangeSets)). This  
include the usrpm directory.

Thanks, I did not notice such a link for the changing set of different  
version.
