>   DEPRECATION: chirp was installed using the legacy 'setup.py install' method, because a wheel could not be built for it. pip 21.0 will remove support for this functionality. A possible replacement is to fix the wheel build issue reported above. You can find discussion regarding this at https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8368.

If you ran it as your own user, then ~/.local/bin is where they are. If you run it as root, it should put it in /usr/local/bin.
