Hi Jim - I was using maximum version of python3 as a rough indication of when the move to eliminate the use of python2 started - in general.
My system has python 3.9 too. It also has python2 but Debian has stopped shipping libraries supporting python2 - hence the problem. I did test flakpak on my odroid running Debian 9 (which still has support for python2) and discovered the chirp flatpak package only supports X86. Also, flakpak has to many dependencies for me. But if my odroid dies it's nice to know I have a potential back up. -- CInaed On 5/27/22 05:30, Jim Unroe wrote: > Cinaed, > > On Fri, May 27, 2022 at 5:17 AM Cinaed Simson <cinaed.sim...@gmail.com> wrote: >> Hi - has anyone with a modern Linux OS succeeded in installing a working >> copy of chirp using flatpak? >> >> By a modern Linux I mean one with version of python3 greater then 3.6 - >> in general >> >> In a terminal window, type >> >> python3 >> >> and it will print out the version of python3 when it starts up. >> >> For instance, the version of python3 on my machine is >> >> Python 3.10.4 >> >> -- Cinaed > My Linux Mint 20.3 (which I mentioned in a previous reply) is the > latest version of the Ubuntu derivative and includes Python 3.8.10. > The latest CHIRP daily is installed using the flatpak downloaded from > the CHIRP download page. is It is absolutely working because I used it > to perform some testing earlier this week which required that I > download from and upload to 12 different (mostly) mobile radio models > a minimum of 1 time each direction using 4 different programming > cables (FTDI, Prolific, Silicon Labs and WCH). > > I did the same testing using a Raspberry Pi Model 3B computer running > the latest Raspberry Pi OS (Debian version 11 (Bullseye)) which > includes Python 3.9.2.
