How to fix: “zipalign: error while loading shared libraries: liblog.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory”

Question

The zipalign is installed but it is not working. I installed it from a .deb file by : "root@kali:~# sudo dpkg -i zipalign_21-4_amd64.deb" Please help

Answer 1

The fact that all your package lines (from apt list) end with “[installed,local]” means that you don’t have any configured repositories, so the first thing to do is to fix that, using the appropriate Kali repository:

echo deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib > /etc/apt/sources.list

(Note that this will replace all your /etc/apt/sources.list.)

Then, update your repositories:

apt update

You’ll probably need to remove zipalign at this point, temporarily:

dpkg -r zipalign

But you’ll then be able to install the current version from the repository:

apt install zipalign
