"Failed to initialize GTK." running grc after "conda upgrade --all"

[DeonMarais64]

Hi, On a Windows 11 machine I am getting the following errors, After a fresh install of the latest release (2022.09.22) an then running conda upgrade --all

Any ideas on how to solve this if indeed possible ? The only way I can get things working is to remove and and reinstall radioconda.

Also while I am here, a couple of other things. In a windows command prompt,

On the same machine and in a conda prompt,

It seems the conda environment does not see devices that are network attached. Within GRC it is still possible to use the devices. For example ip:plutoplus.local works within a GRC flow diagram and so does running the resulting python script on its own. This is not really a showstopper, but it would be great if it could be resolved.

Can SDRplay support be added either retrospectively, or could it also be included as part of the installation ?

Lastly, part of the roadmap to include gr-fosphor in as part of the installation, if not could it be and is there any current method by which to install this and OOT GNURadio modules on Windows ?

Thanks and best regards.

This error is similar to #37 and may have the same cause. Can you post the output of conda list after the upgrade? Either you're missing the newly-upgraded atk package, or other packages have the same error and seemingly need to be rebuilt.

Interesting. I'll have to take a look with my Pluto to see if there's anything that can be done.

I'd love to include it if it can be made possible. See #29.

gr-fosphor is on my personal priority list, but I'm unsure how difficult it may be. This is the general procedure to follow for building an OOT with conda + Windows, although gr-fosphor could be less straightforward than the general case. I'd be interested to hear if you are successful though or what problems you run into.

Thank you for your response.

After the upgrade I also tried running gqrx and I get the following errors ,

Can you post the output of conda list after the upgrade?

I below is the list before the upgrade,

I'd love to include it if it can be made possible. See https://github.com/ryanvolz/radioconda/issues/29.

Thanks, I will take a look. I don't know if it could apply here but cemaxecuter in DragonOS provides preconfigured Soapy drivers and then once the OS is installed you need to run a script to install the SDRplay API were you need to agree to their license conditions. Could it possibly be done in a silimar fashion ?

This is the general procedure to follow for building an OOT with conda + Windows

Thanks, I will have a go at that when I get some time to do so.

I subsequently did another re-installation and then upgraded,

I did mamba upgrade --all as apposed to conda upgrade --all.

I was under the impression that they effectively do the same thing ?

This time the upgrade went without any warnings or errors and gqrx now runs, however running grc gives the following error,

Curious that when I do mamba upgrade --all from my default install of 2022.09.22, it doesn't give me the same package upgrades.

I did mamba upgrade --all as apposed to conda upgrade --all.

I was under the impression that they effectively do the same thing ?

Maybe it's because conda and mamba don't actually give the same solution, although in principle they should.

Anyway, one thing I see from your upgraded package list is that many of the packages are now from the default (Anaconda, no channel name listed) channel instead of the conda-forge channel. I don't know how that happened, because the default channel should be disabled by, well, default. But the upshot is that there could definitely be binary incompatibility there of the type that you are seeing. Given that lots of things are throwing errors that are different, that's my guess. You also don't have the atk 2.38.0 *_0 with glib 2.74.1 combination where I previously saw the particular intl.dll error before, so I guess that's not it.

I would try setting

conda config --add channels conda-forge
conda config --set channel_priority strict

before another mamba upgrade --all to see if you can get a consistent conda-forge-only environment. I've just tweaked the configuration so that the next installer will set strict priority by default to try to avoid this problem.

Barring that, is there a reason you want to upgrade from the 2022.09.22 release? Might be easiest to stick with that, where at least I'm reasonably sure that set of packages works well together.

I don't know if it could apply here but cemaxecuter in DragonOS provides preconfigured Soapy drivers and then once the OS is installed you need to run a script to install the SDRplay API were you need to agree to their license conditions. Could it possibly be done in a silimar fashion ?

I'll have to think about that. I'm pretty sure I've heard of a conda package or two that does something similar, so maybe I'll try to dig that information up.

I did that after reinstalling and that seems to have solved the problem. So far everything works.

No reason in particular, other than having the impression that it is generally good practice to do so. I have hitherto applied updates immediately after installation (which AFAIK is general and widespread advice and practice after most software packages are installed) and then every month or so beyond that. I will henceforth be more circumspect about doing so.

Thanks again for your responses.

PS, I am unsure if I should close this issue. For that reason I will for the time being leave it open. Please indicate if you prefer that I do.

I will henceforth be more circumspect about doing so.

It's generally not a terrible idea, but evidently it has some risks! It's been illuminating for me because I didn't think that much binary incompatibility was lurking out there with the defaults channel, and that's resulted in me making a change that should help all users generally in the future. Thanks!

I think I'll close this since the problem has been figured out, but feel free to open new issues if you want to separately document the requests for gr-fosphor and SDRPlay. Those aren't likely to ever drop off my radar, but extra reminders couldn't hurt.
