I think that, in this case, it's a lack of knowledge about how to<br>
install Python-based software in a Linux system, which is not the<br>
responsibility of the developers, the lack of understanding error<br>
messages, and the lack of desire to learn how to fix things that go<br>
wrong with a simple Web search.<br>
<br>
I spent 35 years in IT as a self-taught system and network<br>
administrator using Windows, Linux, and FreeBSD. Web searches saved my<br>
bacon many a time...and they still do. <G><br>
<br>
Side note: I have used CHIRP under all three above-mentioned operating<br>
systems without issue.<br>
