I'm running 3.7.8 and I have problems with the flowgraphs because they
use the new QT widgets but I only have the WX widgets installed.
There doesn't appear to be anything in the flowgraphs that you could
not build with 3.7.5 and the WX widgets if you would like to avoid
upgrading for now.

The easiest way to keep up to date with GNU radio and the other
associated tools is to build them from source using PyBOMBS:
https://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/pybombs/wiki/QuickStart

This is smart enough to use the dependencies that you already have
installed from the Ubuntu repositories (if possible).  You will need
to apt-get remove the gnuradio binaries that you have installed.
