Dear Elad, Ubuntu 14.04 is no longer supported by the current development version of GNU Radio.
You could instruct pyBOMBS to install gnuradio-stable instead of gnuradio. But I'll be honest: update your OS. It's old to ancient, and even Canonical will not claim it's supported in 4.5 months[1]. So, before trying to install new software, this might be an excellent point in time to update! Note, especially, that if you use a modern distro version, the version of GNU Radio that you can install using `apt` is recent enough, so you don't even have to go through a source build but can simply install via `apt install gnuradio`! If you want a very recent version of GNU Radio and accompanying software, I'd go for debian (debian testing, or if you feeling bleeding edge, debian sid) instead of Ubuntu. Canonical basically only rebrands the debian packages[2], and with Maitland Bottoms, we've got a very involved and competent debian package maintainer. If you choose Ubuntu, not quite sure what to recommend: the non-LTS releases of Ubuntu quickly *become* unsupported and thus are a bit of a hassle, whereas the current LTS release 18.04 already contains an outdated GNU Radio [3]. Generally: PyBOMBS is nice if you want multiple GNU Radio prefixes, cross-compilation. If you just want to get GNU Radio, install it as binary. On modern Linuxes, that's not a problem.
