After a lot of work, I am a beginner concerning gnuradio, only an average linux 
user concentration on PCLinuxOS, now have an awfull lot of files installed in 
my sandbox.  I have had many goes at installing 'pybombs' and I think I have an 
understanding of the concept of installing from source.
What really knocked me about was a very precise position during the process the 
file 'boost'  would terminate the process without any error message that I 
could find. The lack of finding the reason/errors probably because I know very 
little about compiling details.

What came to my rescue was during one attempt the 'boost' download/install 
process became atrocciously slow but at the same time I could see it was trying 
to connect to my usual mirror (internode in Australia). I gave up but then a 
day of two later boots installed and the process could continue. (A resh 
install).

Ufotunately I encounterd more files where the process simply was terminated 
with the command prompt but also reason quite clear, such as "source not 
found.." Others it was not so clear to me, so I decided to continue anyway as 
some files by inspection in src seemed to indicate that a lot of data had been 
downloaded. (when failures occurred after untarring)

I edited the config.dat and just kept telling the process that the programs 
were installed. This way I arrived at the end, with 'gnuradio' beeing the last 
file to be installed.
I had in mind to test the "./pybombs update" expecting this to clearly tell me 
that a file would be missing.  That did not happen.

I just got a long list of files with "True" at the end

------------


I have a record of my attempted install in chronological order. 
Here is my first met really failing proces:



alsa Connecting to ftp.alsa-project.org

What is this telling me, is there a fix I can apply.
