Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] GNU Radio Installation Error

[Michael Dickens]

Hi Rama/Dave - I can't say -why- the error is happening, but the error is because for some reason the llibusb1 library is not being included in the linking. This might be because the libusb1 library has been updated since the last time GNU Radio was built; or, it might be for other reasons too; not always easy to know or tell. Anyway, I'd say that the most reliable way to get over this issue is to "rm -rf" the whole build directory & redo the whole cmake command, make, and make install from scratch. On most systems this will be pretty fast, so it's generally not a big deal. Hope this helps! - MLD
