 Currently, gr-osmosdr has support for the SDRplay functionality, see

 [http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/GrOsmoSDR]

 But the current build of gr-osmosdr (20150716) on macports and its
 variants, at least from what I can see, does not offer
 the option for -DENABLE_NONFREE=TRUE which would look for the SDRplay lib
 and include (which
 are available from http://www.sdrplay.com/mac.html).

 From SDRplay community forums, see
 [http://www.sdrplay.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=99],
 For gr-osmosdr to find the API, the .so and .h will need to be in
 /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/include and be called

 /usr/local/lib/libmirsdrapi-rsp-1.1.so

 with symbolic links to /usr/local/lib/libmirsdrapi-rsp.so and
 /usr/local/lib/libmir_sdr.so

 /usr/local/include/mirsdrapi-rsp.h


 I tried building gr-osmosdr manually with the gr-osmosdr code build:

 [http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/GrOsmoSDR]

 and it worked (from the output of cmake ../ -DENABLE_NONFREE=TRUE below):


 {{{

 Would it be possible for the next update to gr-osmosdr on macports be made
 to have the support option
 for SDRplay?  That way everything needed for SDR radio people (gnuradio,
 gqrx etc) are all under
 macports and users don't need to maintain gr-osmosdr separately.    (Or,
 perhaps there is an option that
 I have not located on the current build...?).
