steev 2020-01-31 18:47 reporter ~0011994	The error you are getting is from the virtual box apt repository you added, not kali. The issue is not anything we can fix, although you probably want to change the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.conf (or whatever they called it) to point at buster instead of kali-rolling since they don't have a repository specific to kali. We already have virtual box in our repositories though, so if you're installing from their apt repository, you will need to contact them for support.
