That is a Debian packaging of gnuradio bug that mint inherited. This is also found in Debian 10 "Buster" gnuradio 3.7.13.4-4. The problem comes from Python byte-compiled files used as templates. The solution is to remove all .pyc files found under /usr/share/gnuradio/modtool/gr-newmod especially: /usr/share/gnuradio/modtool/gr-newmod/python/build_utils_codes.pyc /usr/share/gnuradio/modtool/gr-newmod/python/build_utils.pyc /usr/share/gnuradio/modtool/gr-newmod/python/__init__.pyc I missed these becasue they are not present in the .deb, but are generated when the package is installed. Recent (gnuradio 3.8) Debian packages no longer byte-compile any Python under /usr/share/gnuradio/ - solving this problem. Easiest fix is just `sudo rm /usr/share/gnuradio/modtool/gr-newmod/python/*pyc` Good luck, -Maitland
