Good day, I'm on a Toshiba Satellite i7 running Linux dual booting with Win10.
Repositories I'm using are:Code:root@scallion:~# id; uname -a; lsb_release -a uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root) Linux scallion 4.9.0-kali4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.25-1kali1 (2017-05-04) x86_64 GNU/Linux No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Kali Description: Kali GNU/Linux Rolling Release: kali-rolling Codename: kali-rolling
My issue is with trying to perform a standard "apt-get upgrade" which generates a bunch of error msgs after trying to install/setup "mariadb-server-10.1". The errors are related to "dpkg"Code:root@scallion:~# cat /etc/apt/sources.list#deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free # For source package access, uncomment the following line #deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free # #deb http://old.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib # For source package access, uncomment the following line #deb-src http://old.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib deb http://kali.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib deb-src http://kali.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib
The errors look like this:
As can be seen, I've tried to fix any broken installs. I've also tried to fix anything that seems wrong with mariadb-server:Code:root@scallion:~# apt --fix-broken install Reading package lists...

Tried a different method:
