attrdict was definitely used by wxpython.  I installed it using pip, then the noted errors popped up.
I was able to work around the problem by adding the following lines to `/usr/lib64/python3.11/collections/__init__.py` 

"
from _collections_abc import Mapping
from _collections_abc import MutableMapping
from _collections_abc import Sequence
"

After adding those lines for the modules that wxpython was complaining about the install completed.
Note that nothing I found in the install instructions said that wheel was needed, but as a matter of course I always install wheel and wxpython also used it, building several wheels for the packages installed.

Your note seems to indicate that those modules would not have erred with python 3.10 but definitely did with python 3.11.

They were originally deprecated in Python 3.3, a long time ago. This means that the old (and now archived) attrdict package no longer works, and needs to be replaced with attrdict3, which correctly uses 'collections.abc' instead of 'collections' for Mapping and similar classes.

I believe attrdict is being used by wxPython. Replacing it with attrdict3 should work, though I don't have the environment to try it myself.

I run Fedpra Linux version 37 which has python 3.11

I have previously used CHIRP and am upgrading to the newer python3 version but am encountering several issues.  Each time I try to launch the new  version I get an error, and have been working through them one at a time (which mostly requires installing a python package not previously installed).

I have, however, hit one that I cannot find the proper fix for.

Looking at the collections module installed for the system it does not seem to have the Mapping module as the error states and I cannot figure out how to fix that issue.  Does someone with python experience have any suggestions?
