 4. Configure an installation prefix
    $ cd
    $ mkdir prefix
    $ cd prefix
    $ mkdir default
    $ cd
    $ cd pybombs
    $ pybombs prefix init ~/prefix/default/

 5. Install GNURadio (long time to install)
    $ cd
    $ pybombs install gnuradio

 6. Run GNURadio Companion from a new prefix
    $ cd
    $ source ~/prefix/default/setup_env.sh
