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

[Tom Rondeau]

Sorry for the delayed response to this, but I just tested out the
howto write a block code and had the same problem. I "fixed" the code,
but according to Eric's logs from December when he made these changes,
I'm not sure what's happening is what is supposed to be happening
after they did some work on the swig system.

Bottom line, this might not be the right answer, but it makes it work
and it's easy to reverse when we find the right answer.

Also, this should have only been broken in the 'next' branch. Can you
confirm that this is where you were seeing the problem, or was there a
problem with the 'master' branch as well?

Thanks,
Tom
