Installing gr-ettus (rfnoc) using PYBOMBS has error in gnuradio install

hi @mgarrett1955,

Thanks for reporting this. It does seem like the PyBOMBS recipes need a little tweak. I've created a PR for that. You can have a look at it and apply this patch in the meanwhile: EttusResearch/ettus-pybombs#6

I've tested this with a freshly created prefix in Ubuntu 18LTS. Please do let us know if this helps!

I made the suggested change to rfnoc.lwr, and was able to successfully install the complete package, thank you!!

I installed it on another brand new clean Ubuntu 18.04 machine and it failed due to a missing dependancy. I fixed it by installing the Ettus dependancies listed here, which I had done on the previous install: (unfortunately I nuke the error file on the install)

The error message showed a missign "windows.h"? In an obscure file... Ill see if I can find the error log again.

So there is a missing dependancy.

Since this issue is three versions behind current GNU Radio, I'll close this. I hope the patch was a sufficient fix.
