Reinstall (update) Chirp

27 February 2025 17:02

Reinstalling instructions taken from ChirponLinux web site.

(Chirp application I have installed on a loading flash drive antiX 23.2 x64 Runit therefore, it is necessary to first in the BIOS change the HDD disks for downloading, press F10 and start a PC with Live USB).

1) Download the new version of Chirp Next From the web site chirpmyrado.com - need file with extension WHL.
2) Remove package chirp next using the command

pipx uninstall chirp

3) We install a new version with the terminal command, in the catalog with the uploaded file *.whl:

cd ~/Downloads
ls *.whl

pipx install --system-site-packages ./chirp-yyyymmdd-py3-none-any.whl
chirp

 

 

!! If error error is displayed: package 'chirp' requires a differEnt Python: 3.8.10 not in '= 3.10', !! Although Python 3.10 is installed - the solution below. #### The solution to the problem with Chirp - we fulfill the Python 3.10 requirement /usr/bin/python3 --verSion _Python 3.8.10_ Check if there is Python 3.10 in alternatives. If Python 3.10 is not, we install Python3.10: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa sudo apt update sudo apt install python3.10 sudo apt install Python3-pip In the team `sudo update-alternatives --config python` выбираем python3.10: sudo update-alternatives --config Python
Есть 2 варианта для альтернативы python (предоставляет /usr/local/bin/Python).
