I did a live boot with Ubuntu 20.04, apt installed flatpak, added the runtime and installed your flatpak file. Success! <br>
I had Chirp running on Ubuntu 20.04 in under 10 minutes! <br>
And I was able to download and upload to several of the older Baofeng 888 radios and a Radioddity GA-2S (same driver in chirp).<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Good deal!</div><div> </div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Some notes on your current flatpak:<br>
