Hi Jim - Great to hear from another OS X GNU Radio user! The issue is likely that MacPorts' 'python' expects its packages to be installed into /opt/local somewhere, not /usr/local . I sure there's a way to set various environment variables to find the installed files, but it's easier to just install them where MacPorts' Python and Apple's library loader (DYLD) will look for them. Here's what I would recommend *** all from your OOT's build directory ***: 1) "make uninstall" (sudo or not as needed); hopefully this step will remove everything from /usr/local that it installed. If not, I'd highly recommend removing it by hand. 2) if the build directory is separate from the source directory (as we recommend), then "rm -rf *". If they are the same, then do "make clean" or "make distclean" to remove the build cruft. You do, unfortunately, need to start with a clean CMake build. 3) Follow the instructions from < http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/MacInstall#Compiling-GNU-Radio-from-Source >, but add in to the CMake command line "- DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/local" (as described towards the end of that section in the paragraph starting "By default ..."). You can choose some other compiler via changing the "CC=... CXX=..." parts; or, just omit them entirely to use the defaults provided by Xcode. 3.1) "make" 3.2) "make test" 4) "sudo make install" to get your OOT installed into /opt/local ... you'll need the "sudo" because you're installing into the normal MacPorts area, which by default is owned by "root". If you look through where files are installed, they should be into: /opt/local/bin/ /opt/local/lib/ /opt/local/share/gnuradio/ /opt/local/share/cmake/ /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2- .7/site-packages/ ... and, if not, then I/we need to work on fixing options to work more robustly (at least for OS X). Hope this helps! - MLD On Mon, Apr 25, 2016, at 06:22 AM, jim Schimpf wrote: > I have installed GnuRadio via “port” on OS X 10.11.4 and it runs with > my RTL dongle.
