Package gnuradio-core was not found

I am trying to run configurecommand for gnuradio-802.15.4-demodulation file downloaded from github.

It is showing these error.

checking for gnuradio-core >= 2... Package gnuradio-core was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gnuradio-core.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'gnuradio-core' found

configure: error: Library requirements (gnuradio-core >= 2) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.

i have already installed gnuradio-companion and its working well.

I do not much programming and kindly tell what is the problem in simple terms and what correction i should make?

Solution

  • To cite the answer I gave you on https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/discuss-gnuradio/2017-10/msg00108.html

    Hi Rensi,

    ah, your Stackoverflow Question[1] could really use that link!

    That module was last touched 9 years ago; pretty certainly dead[0]. It simply won't work with any GNU Radio you'll find these days. GNU Radio, and its whole ecosystem, moved away from autoconf/automake a couple of years ago. So, if something has to do with GNU Radio and needs to be ./configure'd, then it's safe to say it won't work anymore.

    Instead, look into Basti's gr-ieee802-15-4[2]. It's maintained, it actually does the whole PHY stack, it's easy to build. Also, there's based-upon / similar modules that do other 802.15.4 PHYs, as there's more than the O-QPSK that your link uses; namely:

    O-QPSK PHY: [2]
CSS PHY: [2]
LECIM DSSS PHY: [3]
PSSS PHY: In the making, watch [3]/[4] for new additions

    Best regards,

    Marcus
