The problem has been solved. A colleague and I figured it out but the solution seems somewhat inconvenient, we had to enable an optional package updater (I can not remember the command he used) and we were able to get all but pygsl. We then just downloaded a .rpm of pygsl for Fedora 12 and used it and everything seemed to have worked. The only issue with the buildscript now is that it will not uninstall a previous installation but create a new one giving multiple installations.
We finally got it working today so I have not gotten to use it too deeply but I think GNU Radio runs nicely on Red Hat.

I am trying to use the build-gnuradio script on a RedHat Enterprise Linux 6 machine and I can not download certain packages. Those packages being wxPython-devel, pygsl, qwtplot3d-qt4-devel, and Orc. I have enabled the optional package stream at the RHN so that is how I was able to narrow it down these four. I made an attempt to download those four rpms but it seems that they require too many prerequisites that I have to keep on downloading, execute, and discover I need more prerequisite packages for those prerequisite packages. Is there a better way to install GNU Radio on RedHat? I would use a different distro but I really need RedHat for other projects and RedHat is the only Linux OS that is allowed on my organization's network.
Thanks for your help.
