When installing grOsmosSDR, hackrf isn't enabled

Hendrik-Valcke commented 1 year ago

Have you read the HackRF troubleshooting documentation?

yes

What outcome were you hoping for?

I'm trying to install grOsmosSdr to work with the hackrf in GNU Radio. I'm following the instructions from https://osmocom.org/projects/gr-osmosdr/wiki/GrOsmoSDR (I installed hackrf beforehand) I was hoping to get something like it says on the website:

- ######################################################
-- # gr-osmosdr enabled components                         
-- ######################################################
--   * Python support

-- Using install prefix: /usr/local

What outcome actually happened?

Instead I only get a couple of enabled components:

What operating systems are you seeing the problem on?

Ubuntu

What is the output of `hackrf_info`?

hackrf_info version: unknown libhackrf version: unknown (0.6) Found HackRF Index: 0 Serial number: 000000000000000014d463dc2fa861e1 Board ID Number: 2 (HackRF One) Firmware Version: 2023.01.1 (API:1.07) Part ID Number: 0xa000cb3c 0x00704762

How did you install the HackRF software? If it was using the Ubuntu packages, make sure to also install the package libhackrf-dev and then try the gr-osmosdr build again.

I believe it was indeed just through ubuntu packages, I'll try installing the libhackrf.

Didn't seem to fix it, I also have a broken package that I'm not able to fix:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 soapysdr-module-lms7 : Depends: soapysdr0.7-module-lms7 but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

When I run the apt --fix broken install command it ends with a dpkg error:

Unpacking soapysdr0.7-module-lms7:amd64 (22.09.1-myriadrf1~ubuntu22.04) ...

I retried installing all the packages (gnuradio, hackrf, osmosdr) from scatch using the ubuntu apt-get install command and it all seems to work now
