I haven't seen PPA updates
<https://launchpad.net/~ettusresearch/+archive/ubuntu/uhd> from Ettus since
4.0 was released, and nothing has been upstreamed into Ubuntu Focal. Looks
like you're going to have to build it. Ettus has bitbake recipes here:

https://github.com/EttusResearch/meta-ettus/tree/zeus/meta-ettus-core/recipes-support/uhd

...but that will involve replacing your whole root filesystem (and
wrestling with Bitbake, which should not be underestimated).

If your SBC has significant horsepower and already has dev tools installed,
you could consider compiling it locally instead. If it takes a day to
compile, it will probably be several days less than the time you'll take
setting up and using Bitbake. =)

You could also get real weird: One Neat Trick (TM) to get fast compiles on
existing embedded filesystems is to remotely mount the lib directories
(/lib, /usr/lib, and /usr/local/lib, at least) you'll be linking against
(sshfs is good for this), and then do the same with include directories
(local versions of the same headers are fine, if your remote system is
space constrained). Then write a CMake toolchain file which tells CMake to
look for those libraries and headers, and to use the ARM cross-compiler.
This does work, although it takes a lot of setup.
