[op25-dev] Re: recommended build versions

There is a lot of good information in that thread. There appear to be a lot
of people using Linux Mint as the distribution of choice. However, being
based off Ubuntu it also includes the bloat that has crept into Ubuntu
recently.

Personally I prefer to use Debian which is the parent of Ubuntu. It is more
simplistic in my view and doesn't have the fluff of Ubuntu using extra
system resources.

I did have an issue recently where I could not fully compile OP25 on Debian
7 because wxpython 2.8 would break when installing via pybombs. Simply
installing it manually via apt-get allowed gnuradio and OP25 to build
without issue.
