Hi Jerry,

if I understand you correctly, you are trying to run the executable
"grc_setup_freedesktop"
from within its directory. This will require you to prefix the executable
with "./".

"." means your current directory, but perhaps you already knew that. :) So,
instead of:

$ sudo grc_setup_freedesktop install

you'll have to do:

$ sudo. /grc_setup_freedesktop install

If you want more info on this, this link might be helpful:

Hope I could be of any help.

Best regards,
Håkon Vågsether

I am just starting on in both Linux and gnuradio so steep learning curve so
far.



I successfully built installed the latest gnuradio into my Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
using PyBOMBS.  All works fine from the command line.



I would like the convenience of a GRC desktop icon and I read on the
wiki.gnuradio.org page to run the following:



$ cd /libexec/gnuradio/

$ sudo grc_setup_freedesktop install



I allowed PyBOMBS to install gnuradio into /prefix/default.  I found
 /prefix/default/libexec/gnuradio which contains a green file
‘grc_setup_freedesktop’ but when I run the commands



$ cd /prefix/default/libexec/gnuradio/

$ sudo grc_setup_freedesktop install



I get an error:  sudo: grc_setup_freedesktop : command not found…but
grc_setup_freedesktop is in the /libexec/ folder



Any advice appreciated.



Jerry
