Summary | 0009038: gimp is not available | ||||
Description | The GIMP-package is not available in the repository, but all documentation is. $ sudo apt-get install gimp E: Package 'gimp' has no installation candidate | ||||

Here is one solution. This sets apt's priority to the Kali repository first. If anything is missing, the Debian repository is used. $ cat /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm main contrib non-free $ cat /etc/apt/ Package: * Package: * $ # the gpg-keys were already installed |
