1 package won't upgrade

Hello,
I used sudo apt full-upgrade -y but i still have 1 package that won’t upgrade.

I can’t say for certain, kinda new to kali myself, but it may be a function of ‘phased updates’ like has recently been implemented in ubuntu. I’m sure someone will correct me if I’m wrong. If it is the case, I would just let it be and the package will eventually be updated.

If you read the output message… there is more than 1 version of that binary, you have to do as asked,
use the -a switch, and then specify WHICH version you want to install from the options given

strongswan is a vpn package and I don’t believe its even in a standard Kali install

Thanks. I’m going to do as you suggested and just leave it be.

Thanks, I seen that and tried to use -a but got an error. Doesnt seem like a big deal so I just leave it be.

where did you try the -a flag, probably on the update, wrong place;
apt list --upgradable -a

that will list the alternate files, then you install the specific version you want.
