Nothing to do.

It looks like your system is out of date. Whatever software you are using to update Flatpak is suggesting that you update other parts of your system. This does not appear to be either a Chirp issue or a Flatpak issue.

I think you have an outdated version of CHIRP installed. The latest flatpak uses the 21.08 Freedesktop SDK/Runtime. Uninstall the old CHIRP flatpak and install the latest one from https://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/LATEST/
CHIRP is not published on flathub so you won't be able to take advantage of flatpaks auto-update mechanism.

Thanks,

OK, installed new version from the link.
fixed my issue but,

any time there is an update to chirp i have to re download a new file?
when i update my flatpaks i use the command:

flatpak update

and thats where the previous error came from.

Hi Joe,

That is correct. CHIRP is not published on flathub so you won't be able to take advantage of flatpaks auto-update mechanism.

Thanks,

I also should have mentioned, if you are in need of an auto update feature and are willing to try snaps out I maintain https://snapcraft.io/chirp-snap
