[chirp_users] How to load under Linux?

I was referred to CHIRP from the Kenwood TH-D72 list.

What are the dependencies to run CHIRP in Linux, please?

I have downloaded and uncompressed CHIRP.

I generally use the Fluppy version of Puppy Linux (it's optimized to be full-featured, small, and functional on Netbooks, Notebooks, and desktops).

Thanks!
