I tried to adapt to Gnuradio 3.8 (CMakeLists.txt) but got an (unrelated?) ld error:

Hello.

I'm using BinViz from master on GNURadio 3.7.9 on Ubuntu 16.04

Build instructions work fine, and I can add the block to my workspace and configure it. However, when running the graph, I'm seeing:

Generating: '/home/jjmontes/Escritorio/top_block.py'

Executing: /usr/bin/python -u /home/jjmontes/Escritorio/top_block.py

Using Volk machine: avx_64_mmx_orc

    self.binviz_vizsink_b_0 = binviz.vizsink_b(200, 100, "", "", "", False)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'vizsink_b'

I have imported binviz from python and the module is found. The library however seems correclty installed:

Can you offer some advice? Thanks!

Under MacOS Sierra 10.12.6 I am receiving the following build errors:

FYI: Also during the first pass I got the following errors that I'll assume are as intended:

On some versions of ubuntu the module does not compile correctly, cmake outputs a warning not stopping the compilation but resulting in a non working OOT module

===== cmake output fragment =========
-- Checking for module SWIG
-- Disabling SWIG because version check failed.
===== fragment end ==================================

When running the module the terminal runs into the following error:
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'vizsink_b'
The solution found on this bug report is to install the latest version of SWIG:
sudo apt install swig swig3.0
It fixed the bug for me, perhaps you could add it to the readme known bugs section?
