Gnuradio Install Fails - Dependency "jack"

[mcquiggi (Kevin McQuiggin)]

Hi:

I've been following the recent issues with the gnuradio port, and noted that the recent difficulties seem to have stabilized. However, both "sudo port install gnuradio" and "sudo port install gnuradio-devel" still fail for me due to the inability to build the dependency 'jack".

I'm running OSX 10.9, and the latest macports, 2.2.1. I completed a proper upgrade for 10.9 and have of course cleaned after sudo port selfupdate, etc. I also know that there are significant problems with the "jack" port that may take some time to resolve.

I think it is possible to build gnuradio without the problematic "jack" but don't know how to do this.

So, that's #40738.

Looks like you would just need to install gnuradio without the jack variant:

sudo port clean gnuradio
sudo port install gnuradio -jack
