Summary | 0008557: Missing fprintd package | ||||
Description | Greetings, | ||||
Looks like the packages has been removed: https://pkg.kali.org/news/550644/fprintd-1942-2-removed-from-kali-rolling/ so this should be expected. |
|
Greetings, |
|
This removal seems to come from Debian: https://tracker.debian.org/news/1456785/fprintd-removed-from-testing/ As long as Debian won't ship it in testing it probably won't be shipped in Kali either. |
|
Thx. |

This sounds more like a support question for: https://forums.kali.org/forumdisplay.php?6-Kali-Linux-General-Questions |
|
Thx. Will do. |
|
One last point: I just tried to register for Kali Fora and I get the following message from https://forums.kali.org/register.php: |

fprintd is a package that comes from Debian - https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/fprintd - as such, it may occasionally be removed when they run into QA issues with their packages. It was recently re-introduced into their unstable branch, and will eventually make its way back into testing. |
