Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Problems building swig 1.3.23

[Bill Tracey]

I had no success getting the 2.3 tar balls to run the audio examples 
(dial_tone.py and friends) using Swig 1.3.23 on a Fedora Core 2.  The error 
I got running dial_tone.py was:

        address@hidden audio]$ ./dial_tone.py
        audio: using audio_oss
        Traceback (most recent call last):
          File "./dial_tone.py", line 40, in ?
            fg = build_graph ()
          File "./dial_tone.py", line 34, in build_graph
            fg.connect (src0, (dst, 0))
          File

        AttributeError: 'PyCObject' object has no attribute 'max_streams'

I'm a way too much a newbie with all this to try and debug it, so rolled 
back to Swig 1.3.22, rebuilt, and it now works.  Clueless as to what the 
actual issue is.

I also had an earlier RPM based version of Swig installed -- I removed it 
before building and installing the newer version.
