Can you provide the error from /var/log/syslog please? There's a known issue, I would expect to see this kind of error:Oct 10 18:55:41 in-target: The following packages have unmet dependencies: Oct 10 18:55:41 in-target: king-phisher : Depends: python3-matplotlib (>= 1.4.3) but it is not installable Oct 10 18:55:41 in-target: Recommends: python3-mpltoolkits.basemap (>= 1.0.7) but it is not installable Or
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
python3-fonttools : Depends: python3-unicodedata2 (>= 14.0.0) but it is not installable or
python3-all (>= 3.11.0) but 3.10.6-1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
We just fixed it today, so the next weekly image (next Monday) should be Ok. Please check if it's indeed this error in your syslog. If it's not, I'd appreciate to if you could provide the file. Thanks! |

I was getting the first error. |
|
|
Ack, thanks for your confirmation. So if you're in a rush, you can download a daily image, it should be fixed. Download it from https://archive.kali.org/kali-daily-images/. Make sure that the date is Oct 12 (build is in progress at the moment, and today's images were not uploaded yet). If you do so, please confirm that the problem is fixed! Otherwise you can just wait for the the next weekly image to be released, next Monday. |
|
|
Oh well, the daily build failed (but for other reasons), will have to wait tomorrow for a fixed daily image, sorry about that |
|
|
No problem at all, I already installed using the net installer image. I had just wanted to point out the problem. |
|
|
Ok, that's nice, thanks for taking the time! I'm closing this issue since it's fixed in daily images and it will be fixed in the next weekly. |
