Hello again Martin
I was following the procedure in
https://chirpmyradio.com/projects/chirp/wiki/ChirpOnLinux
which uses pipx.
Answering your questions:
The system is running Ubuntu-mate 20.04 and I it is the first time
I have tried to get it working. .
I did not keep any of the error messages and don't want to try again
- takes too long to clean up the mess
The next thing I want to try is to set up a clean virtual machine and
try installing it on that.
Has anyone had any success with running the windows binary in
wine?
Cheers
Frank

Hi Frank,
Are you using pipx, or pip? You mentioned "despite pip saying they were
already installed", which is why I ask. You need to use pipx. pipx sets up
an isolated environment for Chirp to run in, with the dependencies
installed in that environment. This is to avoid conflicts between Chirp and
other Python software you may have installed. If you then use pip to see if
dependencies are installed, you will be looking at a different environment,
and not the one that pipx created for Chirp.
It would be helpful to see a log of what you're typing on your terminal,
and the output that you're seeing. If it is really "pages full of
complaints", then you could either post the beginning and end, or capture
everything in a log file and attach that to your e-mail.
It might also be helpful if you could tell us which Linux distro and
version you are using, and whether this is a first-time Chirp install, or
whether you've had older versions of Chirp installed on the same system
(remnants of which may still be hanging around).
Thanks,
Martin.

Hi Martin
Thanks for the reply. I went through the "ChirpOnLinux" procedure but
just get pages full of complaints about missing modules despite pip
saying they were already installed - at least all the ones I tried. The
version in the debian repository hangs when trying to download from a
radio, it is probably quite old. I would prefer a static binary - it
would be more reliable.
Cheers

Hi Frank,
Assuming you are following the instructions here (linked from the
Downloads
page):
https://chirpmyradio.com/projects/chirp/wiki/ChirpOnLinux
what "failed dependencies" are you seeing?
Martin.

Is there an appImage (compiled) version of Chirp available? - for the
various versions of linux. Both the .whl and tar.gz versions
currently
on the chirp website do not work (failed dependencies)
