This file describes the installation of Chirp without package management
on Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. This sort of thing may
be your only choice because 1) a package has not yet been made for your
OS or distribution, 2) the packaged version is obsolete, or 3) you want
to try a daily build.
For Debian, Ubuntu, and related systems, the following packages are required:
python
python-gtk2
python-libxml2
python-libxslt1
python-serial
python-suds (optional)
python-support
For Redhat, Fedora, CentOS and related systems, the following packages
are required: (This list is incomplete. Please submit corrections.)
python
pygtk2
libxml2-python
python-libxslt
Once these packages are installed, you can run Chirp directly from the
distribution directory by typing "./chirpw". If you want to install it
properly, type this:
sudo python setup.py install --record files.txt
This will install the package and create a list of files that were
added to your system. If you want to deinstall Chirp, type this:
sudo xargs -0 rm -rf < files.txt
This will cause rm(1) to take its list of arguments from the file named
"files.txt" and remove those files from the system. If you forgot to
create "files.txt", you can simply reinstall the way it is shown here
and continue on your way.
Note: This will not uninstall directories created by the installation of
Chirp. Presence of these empty directories shouldn't be a problem, but
if they are, it's easy to go through the files.txt file, identify them,
and remove them.

Chirp is a free, open-source, multiplatform tool for programming your
amateur radio. It supports a large number of manufacturers and models,
as well as provides a way to interface with multiple data sources and
formats.
Complete documentation may be found at the Chirp website at
http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp
For a list of radios supported by Chirp, type the following command:
python share/make_supported.py > radios.html
This will generate an HTML file containing a rundown of all the
currently supported radios and a matrix of what features are supported
for which radio.
