[chirp_users] Chirp will not install

[Craig]

Could someone please tell the admin that I no longer want to receive emails? I did as you are supposed to to cancel then but I presume they missed it. Thank you.

Thus, knowing the architecture and version of his OS is pretty immaterial at this point. I'd place serious money on it being some sort of "security" software killing the installer as soon as it sees it do something totally legit that it decides is suspicious.

It's a 32-bit application because it doesn't need to be a 64-bit one and gives the best opportunity to run everywhere as a result. However, I'm working on adding an architecture and OS version check to the script so that it will positively identify these unsupported situations in the future. That will rule out any need to suspect these sorts of issues when someone reports a problem.
