Re: Regarding installation of gnuradio 3.7.10

[Marcus Müller]

Hi Yash,

warning: the packet encoder and decoder in GNU Radio 3.7 were broken for half a 
decade,
and we couldn't figure out how to fix them (I personally really tried, but 
couldn't).
We then threw them out with 3.8 – because sometimes, having something that is 
broken is
worse than not having it.

So, for your specific topic, GNU Radio 3.7 seems to be a very bad start.

Anyway, you should be able to build GNU Radio 3.7.14.0 on Ubuntu 16.04 without 
issue. Of
course you would have to make very sure not to install the positively ancient 
GNU Radio
supplied by Ubuntu accidentally.

Best regards,
Marcus
