Do you have Cython installed? If not apt-get install cython3 and try installing via pip again afterwards.

[fenyvesi]

Thank you for the advice, but I have the same error:

Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "/usr/lib/python3.7/tokenize.py", line 447, in open

command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-install-i1mojk0v/pyqt5/

Steps:

1. apt-get install cython3
2. sudo pip3 install urh, ERROR
3. sudo python3 -m pip install urh: ERROR

[jopohl]

Just saw that you are using a quite old version of pip (18.1). Please update it with

sudo python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip

and hopefully have a successful URH installation afterwards. :)

[fenyvesi]

I'm afraid something is missing yet.

Steps:

1. sudo python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip
2. sudo pip3 install urh
3. ERROR:

Does it work like this?

git clone https://github.com/jopohl/urh
cd urh
sudo python3 setup.py install

[fenyvesi]

It works. I don't know the reason why the "virgin" Raspberry Buster did not work.
I had several warnings about integer comparison with different signedness.

Thank you for your patience.

[jopohl]

From what I can tell is that pip tries to install PyQt5 from PyPi which seems to be bugged on the Raspberry Buster when looking at the log you posted. When you install URH with setup.py install it realizes that you have a working version of PyQt5 installed from the repos already and skips this step.

In any case I am glad it works for you now. :)

[fenyvesi]

Thanks once more.

[fenyvesi]

Sorry to be here again.

It is true that URH starts that i tried in the morning but the RTL-SDR feature is disbaled I can't change.

Steps:

1. I see the dongle with lsusb.
2. I made udev rules: in file /etc/udev/rules.d/10-rtl-sdr.rules with the RTL-SDR content.
3. sudo udevadm control --reload-rules, reattach the dongle
4. URH can't see the dongle
5. Reboot
6. The same problem.

[jopohl]

Is the native backend greyed out under Options -> Device? If so, please install librtlsdr-dev and rebuild the device extensions from within Options -> Device.

[fenyvesi]

Just a strange coincidence. I am from Hungary. The name URH ( Ultra Rövid Hullám) means: Ultra Short Wave. (The FM spectrum). We had a punk band with this name also.

[jopohl]

Haha seems like we chose just the right name :D Took us some thinkering indeed back in the days

[fenyvesi]

I am not sure that I made it well.

1. In the Options/Device
   /Native Options
   /Library Directories wrote the propsed name: librtlsdr-dev
2. Rebuild
3. Restart URH.
4. No RTL-SDR, it is greyed out.

[jopohl]

Nono librtlsdr-dev is a package, so it should be installed with sudo apt-get install librtlsdr-dev, sorry for the confusion.

[fenyvesi]

1. sudo apt-get install librtlsdr-dev
2. URH, RTL-SDR greyed out.
3. Restart
4. The same.

In the meantime I saw that in the terminal window the URH is started from there is a warning message: libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate.

[jopohl]

Did you hit the rebuild button after installing librtsdr-dev? If it not works, just reinstall URH. Since you have librtlsdr-dev now it should work fine.

[fenyvesi]

No.
I rebuilt from URH just now. It says that rebuilt 1 device extension but the result is the same. Greyed out after restarting.

I am trying to reinstall with your proposed solution:
sudo python3 setup.py install

[jopohl]

If it rebuilt the extension it properly has no permission to write it to the installed location. Running URH as sudo and then rebuilding should solve this.

[fenyvesi]

I just started installation again. Some minutes yet.

[fenyvesi]

HURRAY, IT WORKS!

Sorry for robbing your time.

No worries, enjoy sniffing the wireless spectrum.
