Hmmmm,
Sounds like it’s time to upgrade python on the developer end. Hardly anyone uses Python2 these days. I just installed SLINT (Slackware for the blind) on my laptop and python2 was not included in any of the build libraries. So, I am going to have to find python2 and install it as a secondary just to get chirp working. Otherwise, I have no way to program any of my radios (no accessibility on the other two platforms). If this isn’t the worlds biggest hint that things need to be updated, then I don’t know what is (other than a 6 mile wide rock plummeting in from space and destroying the planet).

Yeah, saw that, but I'm a flatpak noob and got an error message :
# flatpak install chirp-daily-20210310.flatpak error: The application com.danplanet.chirp/x86_64/master requires the runtime org.freedesktop.Platform/x86_64/19.08 which was not found
... so I got python2 / pip2 to work and thought I'd document it.
On a related topic, is there a python3 port of chirp ...?
Thanks, Ken

Fedora used to package chirp, but removed it in Fedora 31 (along with most python2 packages)
I found a way to install it :
I was the maintainer. Now I just use the flatpak. Easier than installing EOL Python on your system and effectively runs in a container.
