h1. Manual compilation and installation 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. 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. h2. Debbian-based distributions (Debian Testing, Ubuntu 16.04+, Kali Rolling Edition) Install all needed prerequisites with following command: <pre> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y \ cmake \ autoconf \ libtool \ pkg-config \ build-essential \ python-docutils \ libcppunit-dev \ swig \ doxygen \ liblog4cpp5-dev \ python-scipy \ gnuradio-dev \ gr-osmosdr \ libosmocore-dev </pre> Currently on Debian Testing and Kali Rolling execution of following command is needed: <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> 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. <pre> git clone https://git.osmocom.org/gr-gsm cd gr-gsm mkdir build cd build cmake .. mkdir $HOME/.grc_gnuradio/ $HOME/.gnuradio/ make sudo make install sudo ldconfig </pre> 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. h2. Fedora 26 Install all needed prerequisites with following command invoked with root's rights: command: <pre>dnf install -y \ gcc-c++ \ make \ cmake \ pkgconfig \ boost-devel \ gnuradio-devel \ libosmocore-devel \ gr-osmosdr \ swig \ doxygen \ python2-docutils \ cppunit-devel </pre> Then download the *gr-gsm*'s source and build it with following commands: <pre> git clone https://git.osmocom.org/gr-gsm cd gr-gsm mkdir build cd build cmake .. mkdir $HOME/.grc_gnuradio/ $HOME/.gnuradio/ make </pre> and as root: <pre> sudo make install sudo ldconfig </pre> 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. h1. Installation from packages on Debian Testing and Ubuntu 18.04+ 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: sudo apt-get install
