I can take the blame for this one. On apt-based machines that have
python-apt installed, the new cache (that I added in #391) handles requests
from PyBOMBS concerning the installation state of apt-based packages.
Whenever a package is installed, the cache was not updated (bug). As a
result, any tim
Hey Andrew,
sorry for the miserable experience -- not sure why apt-get would be
acting up so badly. Clearly, the point of pybombs is for new users not
to have this kind of trouble.
I'm still a bit surprised that this is happening on 14.04, which is
probably the most popular distro around here at
I finally got everything installed successfully after doing 30+ attempts
(this is no exaggeration) of rm -rf rfnoc and pybombs prefix init ~/rfnoc
-R rfnoc -a alias. I was getting wildly varying errors from packages not
being found (though I could manually hit those websites and download the

It was WX that was mentioned as being deprecated. Sorry I don't have much

Well, I wiped everything clearn and started from a fresh image of Linux to
remove any doubt (3rd time doing this). This time I made sure to do sudo
apt-get update liberally before running pybombs prefix init ~/rfnoc -R
rfnoc -a alias
The first time it showed boost failed to install even though the
New Linux user here, I don't mean to anger anyone with my naivete.
I just ran sudo apt-get. That might fix the other non-showstopper errors
earlier. But I am not sure where to start to address that last error which
is the show stopper:
checking for BASE_DEPENDENCIES... no

Did you even bother to _read_ the error ?

Did you do that ?
