Add nib310rio-dev to the Debian build dependencies so the UHD package build fails if the B310 userspace header is unavailable instead of silently disabling B300 support. The Ubuntu installer pipeline downloads the nib310rio Debian package artifact and exposes it to pbuilder as a local apt repository. This lets pbuilder satisfy the new dependency inside the clean build root where CMake checks for nib310rio/nib310rio.h. |

UHD, the "Universal Software Radio Peripheral" hardware driver on Debian:
=========================================================================
usrp group
----------
The Debian uhd-host package installs a usrp group.
This provides two main benefits:
- Access control:
The udev rules limit access to members of the group
(at least for USB attached USRPs).
- Real Time Priority privilege:
The pam limits setting allows UHD to boost the
thread scheduling priority for usrp group members.
To avail yourself of these benefits, add your username
to the usrp group, perhaps by running, as root something like:
adduser myusername usrp
substituting your user name for myusername.
Settings will not take effect until the user has logged in and out.
Multiple packages
-----------------
libuhd4.x.x:
Small package just for the library itself.
libuhd-dev:
Small package just for developing applications
using the library itself.
uhd-host:
The uhd-host package contains utilities such as the uhd_find_devices and
uhd_usrp_probe commands for locating and examining USRP devices, as well
as other utilities.
Also, under /usr/lib/uhd/ are examples, tests and utils
directories. The utils include tools for managing the
flash memory or EEPROM configuration of various USRPs.
python3-uhd:
The python3-uhd package to access the library from Python 3.
Python examples are included in the uhd-host package.
uhd-rfnoc-dev:
HDL source files required for building FPGA bitfiles and developing out-of-tree
RFNoC blocks.
UHD Firmware / FPGA images
--------------------------
The uhd-images package is not part of the main Debian distribution
because the FPGA firmware requires non-free vendor tools to compile
from source.
For USRP devices with non-volatile configuration having the firmware
images on the host is optional. But some USRPs are volatile, and
the UHD library will fetch files from the /usr/share/uhd/images/
directory at runtime.
The uhd_images_downloader is a python script to download from
Ettus.com and install the files.
