libsnmp15 unmet dependencies

Code:

apt-get upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies: snmp : Depends: libsnmp15 (>= 5.4.3~dfsg) but it is not installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

i alreadi did apt-get -f install but it show like this :

Code:

Reading changelogs... Done Setting up initscripts (2.88dsf-42) ... insserv: script checkroot.sh: service mtab already provided! insserv: script checkroot.sh: service mtab already provided! insserv: script checkroot.sh: service mtab already provided! insserv: script checkroot.sh: service mtab already provided! insserv: exiting now! update-rc.d: error: insserv rejected the script header dpkg: error processing initscripts (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: initscripts E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

i did apt-get dist-upgrade but it still the same, like it shown above :(
can anyone help me to fix this problem ?

First try to:

Code:

apt-get update

to refresh your package lists, then try again and see what you get.

update-rc.d: error: insserv rejected the script header

Try

Code:

aptitude search libsnmp15

My output is something like this:

Code:

i libsnmp15 - SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) library p libsnmp15-dbg - SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) library debug

Now reinstall these (or in your case some more packages).

Code:

aptitude reinstall libsnmp15 . . .

Now you should be able to

Code:

apt-get autoclean && apt-get autoremove && apt-get update && apt-get upgrade

Be cafeful when using autoclean and autoremove cause I don't know what else you did to your system, you might end up removing useful packages. Good luck.

You too have been mixing your repositories in sources.list ...and have screwed up your Kali install.

thanks dude it's all work, but when the dpkg is preparing for preconfiguring packages it show the same

Code:

i think we have 2 problems here the broken dpkg and the initscripts error and we haven't fix the initscripts problem. sorry for more asking :)

its all solved but it's maybe not recomended

i move the checkroot.sh to another directory and do as following as before i did and it's all solved
