I too had a lot of problems with getting gnuradio, gnrradio-companion to work 
with my RTL-SDR device.

After asking a ton of questions on this list and getting a lot of good help I 
got it working great.

One thing that seems to missing from the internet is a good step-by-step series 
of instructions on compiling from source & getting the gr-osmodr source blocks.

On this forum I posted my step by step commands that worked for me, I even 
repeated it a few times and it has worked every time:
https://forums.hak5.org/index.php?/topic/33506-easy-way-to-install-from-source-gnuradio-rtl-source-blocks/

Good luck and keep trying.

Subject: [Discuss-gnuradio] installing gnuradio and gr-osmosdr
 


having a hard time getting gnuradio to work with my dvb-t usb stick

latest attempt has been to move to using pybomb, e.g.

https://smyl.es/how-to-install-gnu-radio-fftw-rtl-sdr-grosmosdr-and-more-using-pybombs-with-dependencies-by-rpmdeb-or-build-from-source/

originally i installed gnuradio and gnuradio-dev via apt-get install, under 
ubuntu 14.04 which gave me gnuradio v2.7.2.1

i then tried to build gr-osomosdr but it failed (i took the cmake route as per: 
http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/GrOsmoSDR)


maybe i don't need to build gr-osmosdr if it is already packaged up with 
gnuradio, how could i see if the block is there, i.e. what dir would it be in 
if it existed?

unfortunately pybomb fails with the following error:
$sudo ./pybombs install gnuradio

also gr-osmosdr also fails:
$sudo ./pybombs install gr-osmosdr

anyone else seen this sort of issue?
