Summary0009513: aptitude on armhf: Can not confirm installation/uninstallation
Description

Dear maintainers,

in aptitude on armhf (here on a Rspberry Pi), I discovered, that aptitude will not install or remove packages.

When averything is set, and I press the key "g", then a preview for installing or uninstalling packages should appear.
Pressing the "g" a second time to confirm and execute should do it.

Both does not work. If pressing "g", somethings happens, but nothing changes.

This issue apeared on my armhf system.

I purged and reinstalled aptitude, but with no success.

Thank you for any help.

Best regatds

Hans

Issues like this are probably better reported to the development team of that software:

https://bugs.debian.org/src:aptitude

Probably they (Kali team) just shipping the software can't to much about it until the software received a fix by them (aptitude devs).

Maybe also not even bug:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=836708

General Kali bugtracker seems to be not the place to get support for upstream issues or usage questions.
