Python installs are so unwieldy... Why would anyone choose that over C++ Source ?!
Did as instructed for the install of the .whl file, made sure all the depends where there (I already had all of the most recent versions installed).
Ran the command for the UnManaged (Ubu v22.10<) on the wheel file, and got interpreter failure... Will try running it directly on the tar.gz archive, but not hopeful. Unless the snake is pretty smart.
Compiling and installing from 'C' has always worked well. But I've had nothing but problems with Py3.9

I have installed CHIRP-next on Linux Mint 20.3 several times earlier this month for a project that I was working on (running CHIRP-next from a USB flash drive). Success every time. The only things that I had to add to the 'Running CHIRP on Linux' instructions was that for a new install I needed to perform an 'apt update' before I started (without it some of the dependencies were not found), cd to the 'Downloads' folder (where my browser saved the file by default) and change the build date of the example provided in step 2.1 to match that of .whl file that was downloaed.
