[chirp_users] USB LiveBoot ?

[Bruce LeGrande]

Downloaded:
"chirp-daily-20160731.tar.gz"
Extracted into:
~/.install/chirp-daily-20160731/
Ran: "./chirpw" (from above dir)

Traceback  (most recent call last):
File "./chirpw", line 20, in <module>
     from chirp import logger
File './chirp/logger.py', line 27,
     in <module> import argparse
ImprtError: No module named argparse

NOTE: Shortened the reported line containing "line 27" from absolute to relative path here...

Going to take another look at the site to see if I got the right tar.
