Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] USRP2 Diagnostics in GRC

[Umair Naeem]

I tried installing from the tarball that i downloaded from the link given below 
by you but when run ./configure , it says

Checking for ...
... ... ...
Checking for Cppunit - version >= 1.9.14... configure: error: GNU Radio 
requires cppunit.  Stop

and when i run 'yum install cppunit', it says,

address@hidden gnuradio-3.2.2]# yum install cppunit
Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit
Setting up Install Process
Package cppunit-1.12.1-3.fc12.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

It seems that cppunit is installed but still I come across error of not having 
cppunit. What should I do now. I am running these commands in root.

Regards,
Umair Naeem

 From what I understand, GRC is bundled with the gnuradio 3.2 release.
So you shouldnt need to install this "GRC version 0.7" package. Use the
grc that comes bundled with gnuradio, anything else will have problems
working.

If your package manager cannot give you what you need, I recommend just
installing the gnuradio from source code
