[chirp_devel] Here we go...

[Tony Fuller]

Thanks, that was what I expected to see and that command doesn't generate any warnings at all. 

I could also care less what the version is, so I just need to tweak a few lines to get past this auto wheel build thing that pip is doing. 

But, assuming that `pip 23.1` is relased in January of 2023 we could see this error crop up again though when people install on from source on newer distributions. We'll see what happens when we get there ;)

As noted before, 98% of the users consume the bundled builds, and with as many people are using the flatpak type builds (which I'd put in a similar category), that's probably >99%.
