[chirp_users] missing 'pango' package with new chirp install Mac OS X 10.7.5

[Dave Ritchie]

Hmm. It looks like I installed the R10 version of the KK7DS python. 


I see from the readme in that directory that someone suggests R6 (which is also in the download directory). Does that have pango integrated already? Does the R6 recommendation still stand?

Hi Dave Ritchie,
Did you already install the Python thingie too? 

http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/MacOS_Tips

If CHIRP won’t launch & won't run, you may have neglected to install the Python runtime. CHIRP needs that. Even though Mac OS X includes 
Python built-in, the runtime has to be installed is because it includes 
PyGTK and some other libraries that Chirp requires, in addition to 
Python itself.

 reinstall the PyGTK packages from KK7DS and then Chirp
