AW: AW: Make fails while installing gr-osmosdr

[Thangaraj Mukara Dhakshinamoorthy]

Hello Vasil,

As you said I have removed and reinstalled 'gr-osmosdr' (with prefix '/usr')!

Verified if there are two installation of gr-osmosdr:

thangz at thangz-VirtualBox:/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/osmosdr$ ls
__init__.py             osmocom_siggen_base.pyc
__init__.pyc            osmocom_siggen_base.pyo
__init__.pyo            osmosdr_python.cpython-38-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
osmocom_siggen_base.py

thangz at thangz-VirtualBox:/usr/local/lib/python3/dist-packages$ ls          #osmosdr folder under '/usr/local/'!
gnuradio  pmt  volk_modtool


Console:

Generating: '/home/thangz/Desktop/gnuradio/rtlsdr_fm_spectrum_simple.py'

Executing: /usr/bin/python3 -u /home/thangz/Desktop/gnuradio/rtlsdr_fm_spectrum_simple.py

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/osmosdr/__init__.py", line 17, in <module>
    from .osmosdr_python import *
ImportError: generic_type: type "sink" referenced unknown base type "gr::hier_block2"

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/thangz/Desktop/gnuradio/rtlsdr_fm_spectrum_simple.py", line 37, in <module>
    import osmosdr
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/osmosdr/__init__.py", line 21, in <module>
    from .osmosdr_python import *
ImportError: generic_type: type "sink" referenced unknown base type "gr::hier_block2"

I am looking into the links you sent, thank you :)


Regards,
Thangaraj

Cool.

In your previous mails you've said that you're setting cmake's prefix to `/usr` but here osmosdr is in `/usr/local` (the default prefix). Make sure you have only one gr-osmosdr installed on your system. My advice is to remove all gr-osmosdr installations (from source or from package), make sure that there are not `osmosdr` files in `/usr/` and `/usr/local`, and then reinstall gr-osmosdr.

I'm not familiar with this error. It looks like
