[chirp_users] Chirp on RPi

[pizzi.joe at gmail.com]

I have a RPi 4 with Raspbian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye) installed.

I was able to 

sudo pip install wxPython

and it successfully installed wxPython 4.1.1. 4.2.0 failed, but 4.1.1
succeeded.

Chirp ran just fine after that.

wxPython

This will work for x86_64 machines, but won't work for systems like the
Raspberry Pi. But yeah, this gets you on a newer wxPython, which is good for
several reasons. I've added this as an optional step to this page:

Thanks!
