CHIRP

your are right , i dont like monday , ahm micky$oft , so im am using Linux Mint or Debian

but now i found a note at start; maybe its apart of bug or problem

(process:68859): Gtk-WARNING **: 17:24:38.591: Locale not supported by C library.
    Using the fallback 'C' locale.

I am going to guess that you are not running Windows and apparently missed changing the Platform selection to reflect which operating system you are running.

now i found information about this bug

Without looking at the rest of your post in detail, Mint 20 is based on Ubuntu 20.04 which has dropped support for Python 2. There has been a cull of Python2 packages from the repos as a result.

So, you should be looking to install packages such as python3-serial, python3-libxml2 (although I note that python-libxml2 is still in the repos), etc. etc. That is however assuming that the CHIRP package that needs those Python dependencies and libraries can actually support Python3 itself. Note also that there is not a python3-gtk package in the repos.

In saying that, I'm surprised that the CHIRP package in the PPA doesn't request those dependencies itself without you having to manually install them.

I get the impression that the CHIRP/Ubuntu 20.04 issue is very fluid and very current. I would recommend that you try the Flatpak in the meantime until the PPA gets sorted out. Also consider raising an issue with CHIRP on their website about the fact that packages they recommend you install no longer exist in the Ubuntu 20.04 repos.

hello, following a similar problem, I was referred to you
could you please tell me exactly the name of the package I have to install ?

My previous comment has a link to the package.

Sudo apt install python-pip python3.8 ; sudo pip install future

I meant to close the ticket - I take it's not resolved?

no , not at LINUX Mint 20 ; UBUNTU and other

Hi Joerg,

Are you using the flatpak installation of CHIRP? This is the easiest way to use CHIRP on modern Linux distributions. The flatpak includes everything users need including a compatible python runtime and all of the modules (future, suds, xml, etc)

For Ubuntu, I would also like to recommend the snap package that Dan and I are actively working on keeping in sync with the flatpak builds. Like the flatpak, it includes everything users need such as the python runtime and all modules (future, suds, xml, etc) but is available for more architectures such ARM which means you can install this on a raspberry pi. https://snapcraft.io/chirp-snap

yes , of curse I flatpak includes.

Jörg, did you install the "future" package as suggested earlier in this thread (see comment #4)? There are many others who can run Chirp on newer Debian / Ubuntu / Mint distributions just fine. You may want to ask on the "mailing list":http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users for more direct help.

be sure , i add this future Pack

       
*Requirement already satisfied*: _future in /usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages (0.18.2)

Hi Joerg,

Chirp cannot be run using chirpw when installed as a flatpak. This this command instead

flatpak run com.danplanet.chirp

I recently installed the CHIRP flatpak build on Linux Mint 20.03, Linux Mint 21 and Ubuntu 22.04 using the instructions found "here":https://piratesinteepees.org/installing-chirp-in-ubuntu-20-04/.

thanks for info, Jim : i never use FLATPAK chirp before, the instruction make me happy. Now its fixed and work fine.
