you missed a ` on the second command at the end but that doesn't matter. "which python" tells you the where python is in your path, and you don't have python in your path. Your system is broken, please fix it. I can't imagine a modern distro shipping with broken python but you have got it.
Best suggestion I have is "ln -s /usr/bin/python2.6 /usr/bin/python" but that is dirty at best and may cause wildly unexpected failures. You *could* take the cowards way out and add 2.6 at the end of the first line in chirpw, but I'm not sure that would fix it.
Realistically you should fix your system, but I have no idea what distro you have and even if I did I am certain I wouldn't know how to fix it.

When I try that I get:

When I search for "python" I get:
/usr/share/python
/usr/lib/pythom2.4 /usr/lib/pythom2.5 /usr/lib/pythom2.6
Try typing "which python" then perhaps "ls -al `which python". If things are working properly this will show you where python is in your path and which python version is currently set as active. If this doesn't help you figure it out by yourself respond I'll I will try to help.

I don't recall how to issue a redirect so that when chirpw looks for /usr/bin/python it actually goes to /usr/share/python

I was referred to CHIRP from the Kenwood TH-D72 list.
What are the dependencies to run CHIRP in Linux, please?
I have downloaded and uncompressed CHIRP.
I generally use the Fluppy version of Puppy Linux (it's optimized to be full-featured, small, and functional on Netbooks, Notebooks, and desktops).
Thanks!
Assuming you have all required libs it is just "./chirpw" from the chirp directory.
