page, there seems to be an error or some information missing.<br>
<br>
&quot;Once chirp is properly installed, upgrades to newer versions are done<br>
with two simple steps:<br>
    1. Download the newer .tar.gz file.<br>
    2. Run pip install --upgrade ./chirp-&lt;version&gt;.whl (use pipx if you<br>
used it above)&quot;<br>
<br>
Since I&#39;m running Ubuntu 23.04, I used &quot;pipx&quot; to install the latest<br>
CHIRP. Today, a new version came out so I downloaded the latest .whl<br>
version and ran<br>
<br>
&quot;pipx install --upgrade ./chirp-20230601-py3-none-any.whl&quot;<br>
<br>
But pipx doesn&#39;t have a &quot;--upgrade&quot; option to the install verb. If I<br>
try pipx without the &quot;--upgrade&quot; option, it tells me:<br>
<br>
&#39;chirp&#39; already seems to be installed. Not modifying existing<br>
installation in &#39;/home/jon/.local/pipx/venvs/chirp&#39;. Pass &#39;--force&#39;<br>
to force installation.<br>
<br>
Should I &quot;install --force&quot; it?  &quot;pipx reinstall&quot; doesn&#39;t work, since<br>
the new version isn&#39;t installed yet. Should I remove the old package<br>
&quot;chirp 20230531&quot; first then install the new one using:<br>
<br>
&quot;pipx install --system-site-packages ./chirp-20230601-py3-none-<br>
any.whl&quot;?<br>
