Re: Minimal install of GNU Radio without GUI, etc

[Paul Atreides]

Pybombs is still maintained, just not recommended. If you know how to use. it still works fine 3.8, 3.9 and 3.10 using pybombs. 

That being said, the recipe files might not be up-to-date for 3.10. 

You can use ccmake (apt install cmake-curses-gui)

And see all the build flags. I think it’s something like GRC_ENABLED=False 

From what I understand you can also disable other in-tree blocks that way (gr-UHD for example).

Hello,

Years ago now, I set up GNU Radio for use with Trunk Recorder ( https://github.com/robotastic/trunk-recorder ) and was able to get a minimal install of GNU Radio by using PyBOMBS and editing the recipe files (see https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/discuss-gnuradio/2016-08/msg00106.html )


I now am interested in upgrading from v3.8.3.1-16-g9d94c8a6 which that installed but I see that PyBOMBS is now deprecated. Does anybody have ideas on how to build/install current GNURadio without GUI, etc?  As in what configure options to use?  I'm using Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS and the distro version has way too many dependencies that I'm not interested in.

Thanks!
