Guys,
Well done on the new pybombs, works mostly.
I installed and tested these on a whitebox PC, VMware VM and Dell 4500 quad core laptop.
All systems used the .iso image installation from a clean system (formatted partition).
apt-get update
***********
Minor findings:
The Git is required to be installed. Easy to fix with apt-get install git
Executing pybombs install gnuradio osmosdr doesn't really work. It seems like the last item on the list is attempted to build first.
I executued pybombs install gnuradio as a stand alone and about an hour later I had a working gnuradio system.
Then pybombs install osmosdr worked.
UHD worked (isn't support nice!).
Its not specifically mentioned in the quickstart that a fetch is required first.
********
Major problem
I fetched and installed gr-fcdproplus
Build and install worked without error.
Upon execution on a test flowgraph the long time swig bug/error came back (see below the ***)
Anyone remember what the fix for this was? Its not in anything I could find on the list.
Funcube Dongle Pro+ found as: plughw:1,0

Next steps move on to Hermes, dump 1090 and a few others I have built from.
