It's now working, but with some unusual side effects. The channels program, but it resets all of the rest of the settings to the factory default. Still a fine program, though.

I just installed it and it runs. I still have battles to fight with the programming cable, but that's a different story. Many thanks for getting this up and running.

These include chirp, d-rats, fldigi, cqrlog, hamlib, and more. If you're using Ubuntu, this PPA is a good source of the latest package updates.

The package in the PPA is just plain broken, and I suggest you install from the tarball until I can fix it, and don't use the PPA. In fact, I'm going to delete the broken package from the PPA. The package installs the modules to the wrong directory, putting them in /usr/share instead of in /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages So I understand the problem, but I can't fix the packaging right away because I'm traveling for the rest of today. I can probably fix it by Monday. The reason this didn't fail on the machine I'm on now is that the files in the right location were left over from a previous release which I had installed manually and forgotten was even installed (i.e. I thought this was a clean machine). I'm sorry for the problems caused by the bad package, but thanks for the help in tracking this down.

So I'm not sure what's going on. On Thu, Sep 22, 2011 at 5:05 PM, Dan Smith<dsmith@danplanet.com <mailto:dsmith@danplanet.com>> wrote: I used the instructions on this site. Okay. Steve, is it possible that the package isn't installing the module in the right place on 10.04 to get picked by chirpw?
