<DIV dir=ltr>Hi Glenn,
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>These are the steps I took to install Chirp manually on Ubuntu 22.04</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Steps to install Chirp manually on Linux.
<BR>
<BR>1. Make sure you have at least Python 3.7 installed.
<BR> A. Type "python" in a command line terminal.
<BR> B. Some Linux distros
require using "python3". If your distro requires this, please type "python3"
anywhere in this document that you see "python"<BR>2. run "pip --version" to see
what python version pip is. You may need to run "pip3" if your distro requires
you also use "python3".<BR>
<BR>3. Open a browser and navigate to <A
href="https://github.com/kk7ds/chirp">https://github.com/kk7ds/chirp</A>
<BR>4. Click on the green
"<> Code" button dropdown.
<BR>5.
Click on "Download Zip" and save the zip file to your preferred location.
<BR>6. My file saved as "chirp-master.zip"
<BR>7. Unzip the zip file with the
following command:
<BR> A. "unzip
chirp-master.zip"
<BR>8. Change into the resulting chirp-master
directory:
<BR> A. "cd chirp-master"
<BR>9. Pip install Chirp's dependencies:
<BR>
A. "pip install -r requirements.txt
<BR>10. Install Chirp:
<BR> A. "python setup.py install"
<BR>11. Now you can start chirp by running "chirp" from the command
line. <BR>
<BR>
<BR>Note: On
ubuntu 22.04 you might have to install "python3-wxgtk4.0" before the pip install
step.<BR></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Let me know if this helps. Orca was able to read me the menu items while I
moved around chirp with my arrow keys.</DIV></DIV><BR>

<DIV dir=ltr>Hey Glenn,
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I just tested running chirp directly from the git repository by
installing the dependencies with "pip3 install -r requirements", then running
"chirpwx.py" and orca was able to read everything to me. I'm not an expert on
orca. I think the navigation worked, but it did seem to work fine.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Let me know if you'd like help running from the git repository.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Best,</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr>Shipping a complete Ubuntu installation in a VM just to have
CHIRP pre-installed seems a bit of over-kill. Typically a single line
command would install CHIRP, wouldn't it?</DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><BR></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>CHIRP is 20-40 megabytes, a full GUI install of Ubuntu is
measured in gigabytes.<BR><BR>

<DIV>I can't imagine anyone here wants to be responsible for setting up,
distributing, and supporting a VM image of what is now outdated and no
longer supported software. I know I wouldn't want to be. There's a
reason the software is outdated, the best solution is to keep
up.<BR></DIV><BR>
