Removing the old package and installing the new one worked, but there should be a more "efficient" method...
This worked: jon@jon-notebook:~/Downloads$ pipx list venvs are in /home/jon/.local/pipx/venvs apps are exposed on your $PATH at /home/jon/.local/bin package chirp 20230531, installed using Python 3.11.2 - chirp - chirpc jon@jon-notebook:~/Downloads$ pipx uninstall-all uninstalled chirp! ⨠đ ⨠jon@jon-notebook:~/Downloads$ pipx install --system-site-packages ./chirp-20230601-py3-none-any.whl installed package chirp 20230601, installed using Python 3.11.2 These apps are now globally available - chirp - chirpc done! ⨠đ â¨
Any way to upgrade on a flagged system like Ubuntu 23.04 in the future without removing the old one first?

When trying to follow the upgrade instructions on the ChirpOnLinux page, there seems to be an error or some information missing.
"Once chirp is properly installed, upgrades to newer versions are done with two simple steps: 1. Download the newer .tar.gz file. 2. Run pip install --upgrade ./chirp-<version>.whl (use pipx if you used it above)"
Since I'm running Ubuntu 23.04, I used "pipx" to install the latest CHIRP. Today, a new version came out so I downloaded the latest .whl version and ran
"pipx install --upgrade ./chirp-20230601-py3-none-any.whl"
But pipx doesn't have a "--upgrade" option to the install verb. If I try pipx without the "--upgrade" option, it tells me:
'chirp' already seems to be installed. Not modifying existing installation in '/home/jon/.local/pipx/venvs/chirp'. Pass '--force' to force installation.
Should I "install --force" it? "pipx reinstall" doesn't work, since the new version isn't installed yet. Should I remove the old package "chirp 20230531" first then install the new one using:
"pipx install --system-site-packages ./chirp-20230601-py3-none- any.whl"?
