The flatpak would be completely isolated from this, so that's not related.
Of course, silly me. I did purge a version of chirp but I didn't take notice of the version.
There's a warning and "Failed to build chirp" message in the following. However, chirp was uninstalled and installed again. Could there be a problem here?

That way we can figure out where you got what you're installing, how you're installing it, and what you had before to try to get you squared away.
I'll delay submitting a bug report in case I've made an error with the installation.
