[chirp_users] Mac Sierra 10.12.6 2010 13"

[JMB]

I have been trying to figure out how to get CHIRP to run.  I found Ticket # 7147 and reading the whole thing (way over my head)  I ran some commands indicated however I have no idea how to read (let alone understand) the results.   I tried looking up python-future package but was unable to find anything that was remotely clearly safe to solve the problem.

Does the following make any sense to anyone?  If so how do I correct the python-future unavailability warning?
Are there any suggestions on where I can look for answers if not here?

Thanks
Joe
