 I think this is a temporary problem, caused by recent updates to

 If you go the  PyQwt home page, and download PyQwt 5.1.0 source,  pay
 attention to the requisites and make sure you have apt-get them (sip4,
  pyqt-qt4-dev, ) ,  GR makes and runs with gr-qtgui enabled.

Just FYI, however, if you aren't using gr-qtgui, GNU Radio compiles and
installs just fine on Ubuntu 9.04, on two of my lab machines here, by
just upgrading them with their currently installed packages from 8.10.

And to clarify farther, we do not require PyQwt. We require the QWT
library, but not the Python version of it. When I upgraded from Ubuntu
8.10 to 9.04 last night, I have been able to build and run GNU Radio
just fine out of the box. However, I have heard that both Bob and at
least one other person has had trouble with this. I would be
interested to hear how other people are getting along with this.

2009-04-25 Thread Robert McGwier
I have removed the offending package from the build instructions on trac wiki

This explains why Tom could get it to build and I could not get started!

Thanks,
Bob
