[chirp_users] Ubuntu 20.04 - followup
by KD0YMG - Jed 13 Sep '20

Hi. New user there, so I can't reply to the previous thread. I was able to get chirp running using flatpak, but some things seem funny, or might be helpful to others. Sentence wrapping on the message for how to install/setup flatpack caused me some initial errors. Instructions here: https://flatpak.org/setup/Ubuntu/ However, it seems that even after doing the remote-add, I have no repositories. $ flatpak remotes Name Options flathub system I assume there should be something listed there. Or maybe that's all there is - it doesn't show the URL or anything else? A search for "chirp" returned no results. So, I ended up just downloading the flatpak file from https://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/LATEST/ And then installing it from my local storage flatpak install {download_path}/chirp-daily-20200909.flatpak When I go to the flathub website and search for chirp, it returns no results. This matches of course not being able to install directly. A search for "gimp" does return results, on both the website and the flatpak command line. Considering the discussion I've seen on the mailing list archives re. migration of chirp to Python3, and that I'm fed up with Ubuntu (multiple reasons), what distro would be a good one to consider for retaining full Python2 support for a while? Or is this a futile endeavour? (I'm currently pondering Arch, but might consider Gentoo.) Thanks to previous posters for getting me back running. One less problem with Ubuntu for me to bang my head against. :) -- Jed - KD0YMG - https://irgclub.org/ "... we have done as much with wireless telegraphy as is likely to be done."; Sir William Preece, 1891

[chirp_users] Mac Sierra 10.12.6 2010 13"

I have been trying to figure out how to get CHIRP to run. I found Ticket # 7147 and reading the whole thing (way over my head) I ran some commands indicated however I have no idea how to read (let alone understand) the results. I tried looking up python-future package but was unable to find anything that was remotely clearly safe to solve the problem. Does the following make any sense to anyone? If so how do I correct the python-future unavailability warning? Are there any suggestions on where I can look for answers if not here?

[chirp_users] Unable to install working copy of Chirp
by JMB 08 Sep '20

08 Sep '20

I am new to Ham radios and am currently unlicensed. Hopefully taking test this month I recently bought a Baofeng F8HP and data cable from BaoFengtech.com and other accessories I Tried installing CHIRP on my Mac OS Sierra Version 10.12.6 13" Mid 2010 MacBook Pro 1) Installed CHIRP MAC OS Unified Application as well as KK7DS_Python_Runtime_R10 The application downloaded and unzipped. When I clicked on icon I was asked to confirm to open and clicked ok, my screen "flashed" slightly and then nothing came up on the menu bar and nothing in dock I tried opening from download folder then moved it to Applications folder and still nothing. Then I tried deleting and reinstalling 3 or 4 times 2) I deleted that version and tried installing Mac Os LegacyAapplication When I opened this version the CHIRP Menus showed up in menu bar however non of the menu links worked 3) After many hours of research I Installed Homebrew, and Virtual COM Port Drivers for FTDI devices as well as opening Terminal and executed various commands suggested from the net and nothing seemed to work. I am not programming literate although I am able to follow instructions. I have tried every combination I could think of to install and run CHIRP If anyone is able to help me I would greatly appreciate it. I checked out FAQ's and Issues and bugs lists and all similar issues seem to revolve around the legacy version. Thanks Joe.
