[chirp_users] chirp_users Digest, Vol 85, Issue 16, messages 6 & 7

Thanks for the advice.

I removed the existing installation of chirp-daily using the Synaptic 
Package Manager (despite the fact that it was reporting the installed 
version as the latest 20160116~wily~1). I then searched for any files on 
the computer that had a name including chirp using the Files app and 
deleted them using terminal and sudo rm (-r) in the folder where they 
were found. (Some seemed to belong to previous installations of chirp.)

I then did a fresh installation of chirp-daily listed under Amateur 
Radio in the Synaptic Package Manager.

Chirp-daily now reports the correct (and latest) version in its About 
window. It remains to be seen what happens when the Software Updater 
offers the next version. (I have the chirp-snapshots ppa listed in Other 
Software in the Software & Updates panel.) Hopefully it will now report 
the version installed.

Regards,

David Chatterton
