Right now the Ubuntu-Hams PPA has just been updated (thanks to Kamal), but
it's a problem for many with Baofeng radios that aren't backward compatible.

My advice is don't use the Ubuntu-Hams ppa for chirp.  Instead use
chirp-daily snapshots.  This is maintained by the owner of chirp.

Use this ppa:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:dansmith/chirp-snapshots
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install chirp-daily

CHIRP is under constant development, new radios are added weekly, new
features often.
