gnuradio-companion install not recognized after reboot #945

Closed somebodyelse87 closed 2 years ago

somebodyelse87 commented 3 years ago

Steps to reproduce

  1. Linux Mint os
  2. Execute pybombs install of gnuradio as per instructions

Expected behaviour

When I type command: gnuradio-companion

I expect the radio companion to boot.

Actual behaviour

After the PC is rebooted, I must re enter the command source ~/prefix-3.8/setup_env.sh in order to start the radio companion again

once that command is entered, the gnuradio-companion boots by command as expected. Otherwise after each PC reboot I get the message:

Command 'gnuradio-command' not found, but can be installed with: sudo apt install gnuradio

I do not wish to install gnu-radio from the mint repositories so I cannot use apt.

Version information

Operating system: Linux Mint hackrf_info output:

I'm going to attempt to maybe point you in the right direction here, but please note that this particular repository relates the HackRF One device and its native drivers and tools only. You might not get the help you need since it seems that your issue is not with the HackRF One, but with gnuradio-companion and Linux Mint.

To confirm, are these the instructions that you followed?: https://wiki.gnuradio.org/index.php/InstallingGR#Using_PyBOMBS

somebodyelse87 commented 3 years ago

yes, those are the instructions. I ended up adding the sources to the .bashrc file to make it autorun the sources command when I log in. Unless there is a better way to do this.

To confirm, did that solve the issue you were experiencing?

I'm going to close this as there hasn't been a response in a while, but please re-open this issue or open a new one if you still need assistance.
