Hi Ken, Yes, I was following along with the Chirp page directions for Linux. It never did understand the pipx command. I was doing some web searching on why pipx would not install with apt and then I tried pip install pipx and that seemed to work, but then it still would not run pipx So, I did this bootstrap thing I found on-line: user@debian:~/chirp-20250801$ curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 2225k 100 2225k 0 0 3108k 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 3139k
But the command to install chirp still isn't working on the Debian Bullseye. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ken Hansen via Users" <[email protected]> To: "CHIRP users list" <[email protected]> Cc: "Ken Hansen" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, August 2, 2025 9:44 PM Subject: [users] Re: New chirp-next build [message truncated, it was getting a bit silly, including every previous message in your follow-ups to your own posts] You don't say if you installed the required software to install/build Chirp, as noted in Step #1 on the chirp website: https://chirpmyradio.com/projects/chirp/wiki/ChirpOnLinux I'm not a Linux user, so I have no experience with this process, hope this helps.
