Hey all,

I am using win7 64bit on a Lenovo i5.

Done all the Cygwin installation , got Cygwin64.

Then install all the packages needed.

Got the boost,

Got the wxPython

Got portaudio

And SDCC

And then I configure the gnuradio source for minimal using:

./configure --disable-all-components --enable-gruel  
–enable-gnuradio-core  
–enable-gr-audio-oss

And then when I go for the make, I get error:

$ make

Hi Iftah,

you’re building an archaeologically old version of GNU Radio. I’d advise  
against that!  
Without really knowing, I’d say that your not equally old version of  
boost is incompatible with GNU Radio 3.3.

My suggestion is to use the current versions of GNU Radio if possible.  
Where and why did you get GNU Radio 3.3?

Greetings,  
Marcus
