Description

I have installed Groovy Gorilla and added the PPA but it is reporting there is not a release candidate. Before I try and create a work around I thought I should report it.

FLATPAK also complains.

Thankyou

The PPA won't work for Ubuntu 20. Some packages that CHIRP depends upon (Python2, for example) are no longer available with this version. The flatpak is supposed to be one of the workarounds, so I don't know why it isn't working for you.

I have seen guides and YouTube videos that are supposed to help you track down these dependencies and get them installed, but I have not tried any of them.

There is a YouTube video called "Install Chirp on Ubuntu 20.04" that worked for me on Linux Mint 20. I expect it would also work on Ubuntu 20.10.
I first attempted to install the Flatpak, but received errors when I tried it. I didn't have any luck there, but following the YouTube video worked for me.
