Now that's an interesting
combination! ;)
Now I would like to begin doing work with osmocom, GNU radio, SDRs
and some android development.
I knw it's a religious question, but since I am starting with a
completely blank slate, what would be the simplest, most painless
distro to set up a development and build environment (cross
compiling for arm, building osmocom, gnu radio, and running android
development tools and SDKs) ?
I assume the answer must be either Debian or Ubuntu, but really have
no idea ... comments ?
Most developers use Debian, it works as expected.
IIRC somebody in the past tried to package something from *.osmocom.org
for netbsd. Search the ML archive.
At least libosmocore compiles on freebsd[1].
Did you try to compile osmocombb on netbsd? I'd be interested in the
results.

Kind regards,
