No UHD package for saucy x86_64 in ppa

[Darren Long]

Hi Alex,

I just performed a dist upgrade to saucy. I cleared out all legacy
gnuradio stuff using a modifed nuke script (contents appended below) and
have installed gqrx from your ppa.

The bad news is that it seems there is no UHD package for saucy x86_64
yet in the ppa repo, so I can't use my USRP, which is a shame.

There is good news too though. My new FCD-Pro-Plus now works with gqrx,
I couldn't get it to work before the 'refresh' with source builds. This
is good news! I'm still having an issue getting my HackRF to work with
gqrx, but I had that issue before the refresh. It works with other stuff
using the osmo source.

Keep up the good work Alex,

Cheers,

Darren, G0HWW

Hi Darren,

It seems I have forgotten to build it, or maybe there was an error - I
don't quite remember. I have requested a build now but it will take a
day or so before it is done.

As for the hackrf - I haven't tried it lately but it worked last time
while I was working on the new gain settings.

Thanks Alex. No rush :)

It seems I forgot to append the nuke script to my first email.

It's appended to this one.

Cheers,

Darren, G0HWW

Hi Alex,

Having worked my way back around to trying the USRP again, I've hit
another problem. It seemed that I need to fetch the UHD firmware with
uhd_images_downloader but now I get an error about a mismatched ABI.
This occurs with gqrx (as below) and also with a simple grc flowgraph.
Any ideas?

Cheers,

Darren

I guess I need to rebuild gnuradio too, although I really would have
expected a change in the version number if the ABI changes...

There should be newly built gnuradio for i386 and amd64 Saucy. I hope
it will now work better. Otherwise I may just have to rebuild
everything...

Hi Alex,
the same I have here with a fresh new installed Ubuntu 12.04.3-desktop 64bit:

FATAL:
GR-UHD detected ABI compatibility mismatch with UHD library.

GR-UHD was build against ABI: 3.4.0-3,
but UHD library reports ABI: 3.6.0-1

Suggestion: install an ABI compatible version of UHD,
or rebuild GR-UHD component against this ABI version.
