Hi Zap, Why don't you just download the latest chirp-daily and install it directly?
https://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/LATEST/chirp-daily-20200516.tar.gz Untar and install. Or ask the others issued Current Ubuntu which repository is working for them. Dan recommends: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:dansmith/chirp-snapshots sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install chirp-daily But you've tried this, but every darned repository version fails, most likely due to a dependency using python that's using a newer version than chirp-current does. You might look around to see if Ubuntu has the application pyenv which allows using specific versions with certain programs. I'm trying to get that very program working to allow me to use python 3.7 on a distro SLINT (Slackware) that only has python 2.7. Haven't mastered yet, but I'm stubborn.
