Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] GR 3.6.1 and OSX

[Michael Dickens]

Hi Ed - GNU Radio 3.6.1 and the latest trunk will work with OSX 10.5, 10.6, and 
10.7; possibly 10.4 though I haven't tested that in a long time.  Dependencies 
are the key, and not an easy set to get installed correctly no matter which 
path you take to get them (MacPorts, Fink, Homebrew, by hand).  Some day I'll 
get around to updating the MacPorts GR install; it's a bit out of date.  So, 
yes, this can be done; I use MacPorts for the dependencies, and that works OK 
for everything except Wx which has been off and on for years.  Not sure what 
else I can say; if you email me off list with more specific issues I'll see 
what I can do to help.  Good luck! - MLD
