Changes in gnuradio-audio

[ghost]

user@debian:~/gqrx.git/build$ qmake ..
Project MESSAGE: No prefix given. Using /usr/local
Project MESSAGE: Gqrx configured with gnuradio-audio backend.
Project ERROR: gnuradio-audio development package not found

But there is no more gnuradio-audio package in Debian. The new package is "libgnuradio-audio3.7.10 - gnuradio audio functions" but does not contain source files.

What about gnuradio-dev?

[ghost]

Installed, but have the same error.

gnuradio-audio is the component name in the gnuradio config file, not a library name.

The primary audio backend is pulseaudio. The secondary is portaudio. Only people who really hate themselves should use gnuradio-audio on linux.

If you have problems building on debian, I suggest you take a look at how the debian project builds gqrx. They always build the latest version and I get their patches if something is wrong.

"apt-get install pkg-config" solved the problem. I suggest to implement an error message which describes the real missing component.

Good idea... Do you also have a suggestion how to do that? Patch is welcome.
