Bo,

This is an informational message. It is telling you...

"ERROR REPORTING has been enabled" (as in the reporting of errors)

It should not be misinterpreted as an error message...

"ERROR: reporting has been enabled"

With all new CHIRP installations, the first thing that happens is this
message appears to disclose to the user that by default CHIRP will
"phone home" to the developers to report any errors that may occur.
The message continues by letting the user know that if this behavior
is not desired, it can be disabled in the "Help" menu, Just click the
[OK] button to acknowledge the message and continue. The main CHIRP
window will appear and this message should never be displayed again.
