    Hi,

    In the kali GUI, go to Synaptic-Package Management Tool and try it until you can install the stuff and then do a clean apt update, apt upgrade and maybe apt dist-upgrade, afterwards do a apt autoclean and apt autoremove.

    In my case i had at least 10+ conflicts and after doing this i could update some packages, but my broke system and it didnt start anymore.

    I could revive it by booting into rescue mode and there, i first activated ifconfig eth0 up and run dhclient eth0, run the commands above and finally my system is up to date, whole procedure took me 3h+

    Best Regards
