What is your Kali version?

root@kali:~/pwklab# cat /etc/issue
Kali GNU/Linux 1.0.9 \n \l
What is the contents of '/etc/apt/source.lst' ?
A->
Code:
root@kali:~/pwklab# cat /etc/apt/sources.list

Whats the full output of the error (if you dont use [ CODE][ /CODE] tags it will compress the output).
A-> Seems to me that a couple of dependent libraries libssl-dev & libssl-doc could not be installed.
Whats your local mirror? (go here: http://http.kali.org/README.mirrorlist)
A->
Found 2 mirrors which handle this country (SG)
http://ftp.yzu.edu.tw/Linux/kali/README (tw, prio 100)
http://kali.cs.nctu.edu.tw/kali/README (tw, prio 100)
Actually the solution previously mentioned in https://forums.kali.org/showthread.p...-found-in-repo also talks about pointing to the local mirror but i dont know how to apply it. Should I update my source.list with this mirror location? Can you help me with the syntax for doing so. I dont know exactly what parameters to be provided ( main/contrib/non-free etc) .
