Summary | 0004281: Package dependency 'mysql-server' not met | ||||
Description | No package provides the 'mysql-server' installation candidate. Although it is possible to install 'default-mysql-server', and thus get the latest version of mariadb-server, this does not help when installing other packages that have a dependency on 'mysql-server'. | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | Download and install Seccubus from https://github.com/schubergphilis/Seccubus/releases/download/2.40/seccubus_2.40.0-0_amd64.deb After other dependencies have been satisfied, install is still blocked because of the dependency. $ gdebi seccubus_2.40.0-0_amd64.deb | ||||
Additional Information | This problem should be resolved by modifying the 'default-mysql-server' package to also advertise 'mysql-server' as an installation candidate. | ||||
To give more context - https://github.com/schubergphilis/Seccubus/issues/533 I don't think this is actually a bug in Kali. Upstream should probably change the dependency to "mysql-server | default-mysql-server," in the debian.control file in their repository. We don't re-package the default-mysql-server package from Debian, in Debian Testing, mysql-server doesn't exist anymore. |
|
I confirm that the issue must be fixed on the seccubus side, not in Kali. I have left a comment on the upstream ticket with an explanation of what must be done. |
