I have installed CHIRP on my Ubuntu 14.04LTS laptop using the PPA method as described here - http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Download
I kept getting "radio refused to send block xxx" errors, although it worked fine using the Windows under VirtualBox. After reading the bug reports, I tried using the "manual install" found here - http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Running_Under_Linux
That worked perfectly. Looking at the About page, I see that the PPA version installed is 0.4.1 while the source version is daily-20160116. I'm just curious as to why the PPA version is not (or does not appear to be) up to date? Thanks.

neither, so I did not speak out.
Then they came for the Jews, but I was not a Jew so I did not speak out.
And when they came for me, there was no one left to speak out for me."
