Hi Marcus, Thanks, yes, I agree totally. In brief I have tried this and it has broken everything. From my quick search around it seems to be a problem specific to Arch (though I guess we've gathered that by now) to do with Arch not having (or indeed approving of apparently) a /usr/local/ directory. This clearly needs sorting out at a deeper level on my system, so I will try and do that and let you know if I succeed.
Many thanks for your patience, Regards Jacqueline From: Marcus Müller [mailto:marcus.muel...@ettus.com] Sent: 10 February 2017 23:30 To: Jacqueline.Walker; discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org Subject: Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Gr-Inspector Install error Hi Jacqueline, this really is, by all symptoms, a problem of how files are installed, not how things are built. Swig works well if the library from the build/swig directory works! So, I think we moved a bit forward here: since python finds the right __init__.py (if I follow correctly), but fails on loading the .so module itself: Is /usr/local/lib part of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH ? If not, can you add it, and run "sudo ldconfig"? Thanks!

I will continue investigating. However, 'it' (python, the GRC) does go to the install tree i.e., to the /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages (I've fixed the PATH variables now permanently in the shell) to get __init__.py because if I change it in the gr-howto/python directory I have to re-make and reinstall to break it again or fix it again. Also some testing has shown it is a "swig" problem. The init.py throws the exception at the 'from howto_swig import *' line unless the sys.path append of the /build/swig directories is present. You actually don't need the other two append lines to get it to work.

Yep! Thanks! I followed the instructions - exactly - to use gr_modtool to create a module, then add a block... I make a build directory and use the cmake, then make then sudo make install commands as per instructions... When I had not updated the pythonpath to include the install location I got the import error. After that was fixed I get the attribute error of this kind: Traceback (most recent call last): File "square_floats.py", line 159, in <module> main() File "square_floats.py", line 147, in main tb = top_block_cls() File "square_floats.py", line 113, in __init self.howto_square2_ff_0 = howto.square2_ff() AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'square_ff' which is only fixed by the aforementioned kludge. Investigating this showed that it is going to the installed module in the pythonpath - it's only when I successfully alter that that it works!! I think the problem is that python looks into /usr/lib/python2.7/..., but not into /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ ; maybe you'd want to add that to the pythonpath? You can alternatively use "cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr .." to explicitly install into /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages, but that is probably against all rules of Arch. Best regards, Marcus If said file only has for example: from howto_swig import * then it will not work but will throw the attribute error.

But where *did* you then install your gr-tutorial to, then (if in doubt, look into build/install_manifest.txt)? Point is that the *installation target* should be part of your python path, not the source (/python) nor the build (/build) directories.

It's how I got the python and C++ blocks in the Guided Tutorials to work and then I tried again with the square_ff() OOT modules tutorial thinking it must have been something I did wrong. I fixed a few other issues I had via that route (I had 'orphan' modules in the GRC) but I still had these runtime errors when I tried to run the 'howto' blocks. I didn't use pybombs to install - I haven't touched pybombs. As I'm on Arch, I installed everything from the Archlinux packages using pacman. Since I've been going through this second sequence of tutorials I've had no problems and no error messages with make and make install! So there's no hint it's not going to work until runtime. I did get an ImportError initially but I fixed that by setting the PYTHONPATH properly.

Did "make install" work well? Where did things get installed to? Is that installation target right inside your pybombs prefix?

I have fixed it by adding the following lines to the -_init__.py file and then re-doing the make and make install steps so that it gets compiled into the site-packages directories in the PYTHONPATH. import sys sys.path.append("/your-home-path/gr-tutorial/python/") sys.path.append("/your-home-path/gr-tutorial/build/") sys.path.append("/your-home-path/gr-tutorial/build/swig/") I suppose I could add these paths to the sys path and that would fix the problem once and for all.
