I'm still of the belief that it's easier to install flat pak and then install the chirp flatpak package vs a number of command line operations.<span id="ms-outlook-android-cursor"></span><br>

The flatpak files get published next to the Windows I stalled and Mac application.

I've used Ubuntu since version 8, and often go to Ubuntu for certain tasks, <br>
because I am still a windows user, and I used DOS quite a bit back in the <br>
day, and still recall all the CLI commands of DOS.<br>
But I use Linux for chirp for screenreader reasons, Chirp is challenging in <br>
windows with a screenreader.<br>
But reading all this makes my head spin.<br>
Even if the Linux CLI was my strength, I can't imagine doing all that.<br>
I'd sooner install a live Linux that still uses the old repository for use <br>
with Chirp.<br>
But to each their own, JMO.<br>
BTW, Why aren't there scripts to do all that?<br>

<br>
Ted;<br>
<br>
You will have to do some manual editing to install Chirp on a 20.04<br>
system.<br>
<br>
I hope this helps,<br>
<br>
You don't need to download Python 2.7 from the Python WEB page, or download<br>
the flatpak.<br>
Its in Focals,(20.04)Repositories.<br>
<br>
These are all terminal commands, don't use the quotes.<br>
<br>
"sudo apt install python2" will install 2.7<br>
<br>
"ls -ls /usr/bin/python*" will list your versions of python installed.<br>
In my case 2.7 and 3.8<br>
<br>
Add the Chirp repository:<br>
<br>
"sudo apt-add-repository ppa:dansmith/chirp-snapshots"<br>
<br>
Next Step from The Chirp WEB page:<br>
<br>
"sudo apt-get install chirp-daily"<br>
<br>
Returns an error.<br>
<br>
"E: Unable to locate package chirp-daily"<br>
<br>
In terminal, open your file manager as sudo.<br>
I use Xubuntu, so I use "Sudo thunar" Your command will<br>
match your desktop.<br>
<br>
Using mousepad, or text editor,<br>
Edit, "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/dansmith-ubuntu-chirp-snapshots-focal.list"<br>
<br>
Change: "deb <a href="http://ppa.launchpad.net/dansmith/chirp-snapshots/ubuntu">http://ppa.launchpad.net/dansmith/chirp-snapshots/ubuntu</a><br>
focal main"<br>
to: "deb <a href="http://ppa.launchpad.net/dansmith/chirp-snapshots/ubuntu">http://ppa.launchpad.net/dansmith/chirp-snapshots/ubuntu</a> bionic<br>
main"<br>
<br>
"sudo apt update"<br>
"sudo apt-get install chirp-daily"<br>
<br>
Another error:<br>
"The following packages have unmet dependencies" And a list of 4 of them.<br>
<br>
All http: commands are in your favorite browser.<br>
All the other commands are at terminal.<br>
<br>
Download the first missing file:<br>
<br>
"<a href="https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/amd64/python-libxslt1/download">https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/amd64/python-libxslt1/download</a>"<br>
<br>
"cd Downloads"<br>
<br>
"sudo dpkg -i python-libxslt1_1.1.29-5ubuntu0.2_amd64.deb"<br>
Another error:<br>
"sudo apt install -f"<br>
"sudo apt-get install chirp-daily"<br>
<br>
Now we are down to 3 missing dependencies.<br>
<br>
Download the first from here:<br>
<br>
"<a href="https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/amd64/python-gtk2/download">https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/amd64/python-gtk2/download</a>"<br>
<br>
"sudo dpkg -i python-gtk2_2.24.0-5.1ubuntu2_amd64.deb"<br>
"sudo apt install -f"<br>
"sudo apt-get install chirp-daily"<br>
<br>
Down to 2 missing, getting closer.<br>
<br>
<br>
Download the next one from here"<br>
<br>
"<a href="https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/all/python-serial/download">https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/all/python-serial/download</a>"<br>
"sudo dpkg -i python-serial_3.4-2_all.deb"<br>
<br>
<br>
There, now we are down to 1 missing:<br>
<br>
Download from here:<br>
<br>
"<a href="https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/all/python-suds/download">https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/all/python-suds/download</a>"<br>
"sudo dpkg -i python-suds_0.7~git20150727.94664dd-5_all.deb"<br>
<br>
Another error:<br>
<br>
"sudo apt install -f"<br>
<br>
"sudo apt-get install chirp-daily"<br>
<br>
It installed, chirpw returns an error;<br>
"python-future" is missing.<br>
<br>
"<a href="https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/all/python-future/download">https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/all/python-future/download</a>"<br>
<br>
"sudo dpkg -i python-future_0.15.2-4ubuntu2_all.deb"<br>
<br>
<br>
Another dependency error:<br>
<br>
"sudo apt install -f"<br>
<br>
"chirpw" its running.<br>
