RE: [Discuss-gnuradio] problem with installation of howto

[Mike Cornelius]

Hi Achilleas,

I've been doing some work on the qtgui module.
When I started this work I was using a somewhat hackish approach to building
it 'out of tree', this weekend I've been working on cleaning this up so that
the build is based on the process used in how-to-write-a-block from 'next'.

In the process I've come across the issue you describe below, 

To fix it I :-

- added a suitable swig/__init__.py
- modified swig/makefile.am to include the new __init__.py
- modified the import path in python/__init__.py 
- modified the import path python/qa_howto.py 

I've attached a copy of my mods to this message if you'd like to give it a
try.

I'm not sure how 'correct' my solution is though.

BR,

Mike VK2XMC
