Sounds like you have had general success on Mac OS X.  


I have been trying the following:

    sudo port install gnuradio +full  configure.compiler=llvm-gcc-4.2
    sudo port select --set python python27

    volk_profile

    sudo port install rtl-sdr

    rtl_test -t

All with success, the only hardware I have right now is the DTV tuner.  Success 
except the following...


What I am having trouble with is getting gr-osmosdr installed.   I did not see 
it in macports so I tried from the rtl-sdr site:

git clone git://git.osmocom.org/gr-osmosdr
cd gr-osmosdr/
mkdir build
cd build/
cmake ../
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

The last command 'ldconfig' is not supported on the Mac.  

When I do this it ends up in /usr/local instead of /opt/local for macports.  I 
changed one of the make files and got it to copy over to /opt/local instead.  

My problem is the new sources do not show up in gnuradio-companion.  Maybe I 
did something out of order.  Maybe missing something.  


How did you successfully install rtl-sdr and gr-osmosdr in the Mac and working 
with gnu radio-companion?  

Thanks,
mlk

PS: Thanks to michaelld for becoming active in maintaining current versions in 
macports again!
