This clearly means that your DJ-G7 is some other flavor than the one for which 
a driver has been written. I'm guessing the one in the tree is the european 
version and yours is...something else?

Feel free to open a new feature request for that model to help get it included 
in chirp as a first class citizen.

You can't upload a CSV to the radio, for sure, as mentioned in the Beginner's 
Guide:

https://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Beginners_Guide

That also covers how to get memories into your radio's image via copy and paste.

Yes, copy and paste is how you do it. A segfault in a python application means 
something is very wrong, but almost surely with the stack of non-python stuff 
underneath it (wx, GTK, etc, etc). I've not seen a segault using CHIRP in I 
can't even remember how long. Last one was absolutely with the GTK/cocoa stuff 
from the python2 years, as that has always been a bit tipsy. Since copy and 
paste interacts with your system clipboard, if that's where the segfault 
happens I'd guess there's some mismatched libraries involved.

Feel free to open a bug and provide more information to help track down the 
segfault if you'd like.
