Summary0007233: Postgresql-13 Kali Nethunter Rootless
Description

When upgrading Kali Nethunter postgresql-13 throws an error saying /var/lib/postgresql/13/main must not be owned by root.
I've tried chown-ing the directories recursively and I also tried chmod-ing the the directories but, no luck.
From my understanding and experience this is only happening on Kali Nethunter and not in Kali x86_64.

Steps To Reproduce

1). Install Kali Nethunter Rootless
2). Run apt full-upgrade -y
3). When finished, run sudo apt update
3). Then, run apt --upgradable (postgresql-13 should be the only package listed)
4). Run sudo apt dist-upgrade -y or sudo apt upgrade -y

Additional Information

Two errors should appear after step 4.
I've tried doing an upgrade without sudo but, an error is thrown saying
"dpkg: error: requested operation requires superuser privilege"
