| Summary | 0002612: virtualbox-qt unmet dependencies | ||||
| Description | * Kali Linux 2.0 installed from ISO - OK * apt-get install virtualbox - OK * apt-get update & upgrade Now trying to upgrade Kali 2.0 packages give "unmet dependencies" error. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | # apt-get update # apt-get upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade... Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: virtualbox-qt : Depends: virtualbox (= 4.3.28-dfsg-1kali1+b1) but 4.3.28-dfsg-1kali1 is to be installed E: Broken packages | ||||

Can you show the output of "apt-cache policy virtualbox virtualbox-qt" after an "apt-get update"? In theory you should see version 4.3.28-dfsg-1kali1+b1 of both packages... and the upgrade should not cause any problem, it's just that both packages must be upgraded together. If the upgrade still fails, can you try to do "apt-get install virtualbox virtualbox-qt" and show the error? Did you put some package on "hold" or did you add custom apt pinning that would forbid APT to do it job? |

This shows that you don't have Kali 2.0 in your /etc/apt/sources.list. Ensure you have "sana" and not kali as distribution name there... deb http://http.kali.org/kali sana main contrib non-free |
