Summary0006059: SU - install issue
Description

I did read the new rollout and downloaded the VMware package. However, with the new permissions, I'm unable to run new installations. Even with the password-less root right, I'm unable to continue. As a Nuub, I apologize if this is an easy fix. See attached.

Steps To Reproduce

Reinstall with SUDO

"sudo foo && bar" runs "foo" as root but "bar" as normal user.

So try "sudo apt update && sudo apt install code".

By the way, this question should have been asked on forums.kali.org or some support channel, not here on bugs.kali.org.
