| 1 | 2 | ptrkrysik | h1. Manual compilation and installation |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 1 | ptrkrysik | |
| 3 | 4 | ptrkrysik | Currently manual method of installation is considered to be the easiest way to get newest version of *gr-gsm* up and running. The *gr-gsm* repository contains automatic tests of manual installation in form of "dockerfiles":https://github.com/ptrkrysik/gr-gsm/tree/development/tests/dockerfiles that are built and executed by "Travis CI":https://travis-ci.org/ptrkrysik/gr-gsm/builds continuous integration service. Travis CI informs if particular revision of *gr-gsm* builds and passes tests on a set of GNU/Linux distributions. History of the results can be checked on "the *gr-gsm*'s Travis CI page":https://travis-ci.org/ptrkrysik/gr-gsm/builds. |

| 5 | 4 | ptrkrysik | The instructions presented here are a version of dockerfiles:https://github.com/ptrkrysik/gr-gsm/tree/development/tests/dockerfiles with stripped instructions specific to docker and without running unit tests. This wiki might at some moment be behind installation procedures contained in the dockerfiles:https://github.com/ptrkrysik/gr-gsm/tree/development/tests/dockerfiles so in case of installation problems it is a good idea to look in there. |

| 7 | 6 | ptrkrysik | h2. Debbian-based distributions (Debian Testing, Ubuntu 16.04+, Kali Rolling Edition) |
| 8 | 1 | ptrkrysik | |
| 9 | 5 | ptrkrysik | Install all needed prerequisites with following command: |
| 10 | 1 | ptrkrysik | |
| 11 | 3 | ptrkrysik | <pre> |
| 12 | 9 | ptrkrysik | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y \ |
| 13 | 1 | ptrkrysik | cmake \ |
| 14 | autoconf \ |
||
| 15 | libtool \ |
||
| 16 | pkg-config \ |
||
| 17 | build-essential \ |
||
| 18 | python-docutils \ |
||
| 19 | libcppunit-dev \ |
||
| 20 | swig \ |
||
| 21 | doxygen \ |
||
| 22 | liblog4cpp5-dev \ |
||
| 23 | python-scipy \ |
||
| 24 | gnuradio-dev \ |
||
| 25 | gr-osmosdr \ |
||
| 26 | libosmocore-dev |
||
| 27 | 3 | ptrkrysik | </pre> |
| 28 | 1 | ptrkrysik | |
| 29 | Currently on Debian Testing and Kali Rolling execution of following command is needed: |
||
| 30 | 3 | ptrkrysik | <pre> sudo ln -sf /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libvolk.so.1.3.1 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libvolk.so.1.3 </pre> |
| 31 | 1 | ptrkrysik | It is a workaround due to an "issue":https://github.com/ptrkrysik/gr-gsm/pull/378#issuecomment-379587145 with faulty libvolk installation on these systems at the moment. |
| 32 | 5 | ptrkrysik | |
| 33 | <pre> |
||
| 34 | git clone https://git.osmocom.org/gr-gsm |
||
| 35 | cd gr-gsm |
||
| 36 | mkdir build |
||
| 37 | cd build |
||
| 38 | cmake .. |
||
| 39 | mkdir $HOME/.grc_gnuradio/ $HOME/.gnuradio/ |
||
| 40 | make |
||
| 41 | sudo make install |
||
| 42 | sudo ldconfig |
||
| 43 | </pre> |
||
| 44 | |||
| 45 | To speedup compilation instead of "make" you can use parallel build <pre>make -j $nproc</pre> where "$nproc" is number of CPU cores. The "mkdir $HOME/.grc_gnuradio/ $HOME/.gnuradio/" line is there because without it parallel build sometimes fails. |
||
| 46 | |||
| 47 | h2. Fedora 26 |
||
| 48 | |||
| 49 | 9 | ptrkrysik | Install all needed prerequisites with following command invoked with root's rights: |
| 50 | 5 | ptrkrysik | <pre>dnf install -y \ |
| 51 | gcc-c++ \ |
||
| 52 | make \ |
||
| 53 | cmake \ |
||
| 54 | pkgconfig \ |
||
| 55 | boost-devel \ |
||
| 56 | gnuradio-devel \ |
||
| 57 | libosmocore-devel \ |
||
| 58 | gr-osmosdr \ |
||
| 59 | swig \ |
||
| 60 | doxygen \ |
||
| 61 | python2-docutils \ |
||
| 62 | 8 | ptrkrysik | cppunit-devel |
| 63 | 5 | ptrkrysik | </pre> |
| 64 | 1 | ptrkrysik | |
| 65 | Then download the *gr-gsm*'s source and build it with following commands: |
||
| 66 | 3 | ptrkrysik | <pre> |
| 67 | 1 | ptrkrysik | git clone https://git.osmocom.org/gr-gsm |
| 68 | 4 | ptrkrysik | cd gr-gsm |
| 69 | mkdir build |
||
| 70 | cd build |
||
| 71 | cmake .. |
||
| 72 | 1 | ptrkrysik | mkdir $HOME/.grc_gnuradio/ $HOME/.gnuradio/ |
| 73 | make |
||
| 74 | </pre> |
||
| 75 | |||
| 76 | 9 | ptrkrysik | and as root: |
| 77 | <pre> |
||
| 78 | make install |
||
| 79 | ldconfig |
||
| 80 | </pre> |
||
| 81 | |||
| 82 | 1 | ptrkrysik | To speedup compilation instead of "make" you can use parallel build <pre>make -j $nproc</pre> where "$nproc" is number of CPU cores. The "mkdir $HOME/.grc_gnuradio/ $HOME/.gnuradio/" line is there because without it parallel build sometimes fails. |
| 83 | |||
| 84 | |||
| 85 | h1. Installation from packages on Debian Testing and Ubuntu 18.04+ |
||
| 86 | 9 | ptrkrysik | |
| 87 | Thanks to work of Petter Reinholdtsen *gr-gsm* has packages for Debian Testing that were subsequently included in Ubuntu starting from 18.04. On these systems *gr-gsm* can be installed by simply doing: |
||
| 88 | 10 | ptrkrysik | <pre>sudo apt-get install</pre> |
| 89 | |||
| 90 | As of *gr-gsm*'s version 0.41.2 grgsm_livemon application doesn't work because of change of PyQT version in current Debian Testing and Ubuntu 18.04. In order to use this program you can generate new version out of "grgsm_livemon.grc": |
||
| 91 | <pre> |
||
| 92 | wget http://git.osmocom.org/gr-gsm/plain/apps/grgsm_livemon.grc |
||
| 93 | grcc -d . grgsm_livemon.grc |
||
| 94 | mv grgsm_livemon.py grgsm_livemon |
||
| 95 | </pre> |
||
| 96 | Then move the grgsm_livemon file into a directory in the search path, i.e. /usr/local/bin. |
||

| 98 | h1. Compilation and installation with use of Pybombs |
||
| 99 | |||
| 100 | *Pybombs* is *GNU Radio* project's installation manager that installs *GNU Radio* and related projects, *gr-gsm* included. In times when distributions provided too old *GNU Radio*, *pybombs* offered the most straightforward way of installing *gr-gsm* as it automagically compiles newest *GNU Radio* and all other *gr-gsm*'s prerequisites. *Pybombs* is doing quite complex work of figuring out what too install from packages of distribution and what to compile. Failures too install with use of *pybombs* were quite widespread among *gr-gsm* users due to many reasons (in addition to general issues of *gr-gsm* installation): |
||
| 101 | * head of *GNU Radio*'s master branch not compiling due to ongoing development, |
||
| 102 | * issues in *pybombs* resulting from intensive changes in the project, |
||
| 103 | * |
