Nick,
Thank you for the info. I've uninstalled pybombs everywhere, so I
should be "clean" again.
I tried running your two easy_install commands and got an unexpected result:
jmat@jmat:~/Downloads$ easy_install --version
usage: easy_install [options] requirement_or_url ...
or: easy_install --help
error: invalid command 'easy_install'
jmat@jmat:~/Downloads$ sudo easy_install --version
setuptools 28.3.0 from /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (Python 2.7)
I sort of figured that the non-sudo version would give some sort of
result based on your email. Does this tell us something?
Thanks!

So.... If I look at sys.path in python, I do see
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
(and I didn't do anything special to make this happen.)
Also, which pybombs points to
/usr/local/bin/pybombs
And my install location for pybombs is
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
From the standpoint of a fresh install (which you certainly no longer
have), I think the problem comes in when you fail to have permissions
on the pybombs bin... I suspect that's something to do with your weird
sudo script and not pip or pybombs, but I'm not sure.
If you could get back to the state you were in after your initial
attempt to install, I'd like to know the value of your sys.path in
python.
Right now, you have a frankenbuild for pybombs thanks to running sudo
with the --user flag... I would uninstall that, for sure and get to
where you have no pybombs installed anywhere.
So... as for why you can't pip install pybombs (no sudo)... this has
to be a setuptools thing.
Maybe try
easy_install --version
and
sudo easy_install --version
to see if there's a difference. Because your sudo is broken, you may
have to do a lot of "sudo which blah" and "which blah" to find out
what your problem is.
You can probably try an install without any sudo use by first sudo
apt-get remove --purge pip and then downloading and using get-pip.py.
Then just pip install pybombs (no flags, no sudo, no nothing)... and
try that one.
Cheers,
Nick M.

Hi Nick!
I did. When I run it I get:
Requirement already up-to-date: setuptools in
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
I am not on a thin client, I am on a fresh load of 16.04 on an
actual PC. I do believe that sudo isn't actually sudo, but a
script. That said, I wasn't having sudo issues before I reloaded
my machine (which was running 14.04).
Thanks!

Jason, did you try
pip install --upgrade setuptools
as a first step? Are you running on a special setup such as a
patchwork virtual machine being served to you on a thinclient
with f**ed permissions?
Cheers,

I am still stuck at this stage. Assuming I am dead in the
water, what is the next best (approved) way of installing
GnuRadio? Doing it by hand from the github clone?
