When I attempt to run any python example script or utility that includes
usrp.py, I get the following error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “./usrp_fft.py”, line 24, in ?

import usrp_prims
ImportError: No module named usrp_prims
Indeed usrp_prims.py is nowhere to be found on my system. Neither is
usrp_dbid, the next module called in usrp.py. I searched the mailing
list archive and found similar problems mentioned, but found no
solution. Where might I find these missing modules?
I’m running Debian, and installed the GNU Radio package via apt-get.

Looks like the current Debian packages are out of date.
Johnathan C. can give an update in a bit. I know he’s busy during
the day for the rest of the week.
If you like, you could build from svn. It’s known to work

Just to clarify, you installed GNU Radio packages versioned 3.0.2 from
the official Debian archive?
3.0.2 doesn’t have the usrpm module in it (that was introduced on the
trunk post-3.0.2.) So the question then would be, where are you getting
a usrp.py installed from that imports usrpm? Is it possible you have
stuff “left over” from a previous installation of a newer release?
The only package I’ve ever installed was 3.0.2. I’ve done so once with
Synaptic Package Manager and once with apt-get.
I see no mention of usrpm. Specifically, usrp_fft.py imports usrp.py,
and usrp.py imports usrp_prims and usrp_dbid, neither of which exist in
my installation.
I am sorry–I was mistaken on my end (long day…)
I just downloaded and looked through the 3.0.2 packages–the two files
you need are both located in the ‘python-usrp’ package, so make sure
that is installed.

Problem solved. My Debian installation did not by default include one
of the very critical Debian package download mirrors in apt-get’s
sources.list file, so I was indeed missing python-usrp, among other
things.
For the record, to allow apt-get to find all necessary GNU Radio/USRP
packages, I added
