[chirp_users] Chirp On Puppy Linux

You install and run it differently since chirp-next is actually a python3
build.

I installed python3-pip, then as my user I installed chirp-next as my
regular user using pip.
Will need to check my notes and verify the steps on  a new clean install of
Fedora 37 and Chirp-next.  (you did not note the OS you are running, but I
assume it is linux.)

However, if you install it with pip as a regular user it is installed under
/home/USER/.local/ and the executable is ~/.local/bin/chirp.
You will need to install (using pip) the wheel and wxpython and attrdict3
packages, but I don't remember what all else is required.  This is why I
need to repeat the clean install and verify my notes.

It runs in a venv if installed in that manner so nothing else is needed to
run it.  Check your $PATH and if it includes ~/.local/bin then the command
'chirp' is all that will be required.
