so my problem is as follows. I install Kali Linux from the wsl store with
$wsl --install -d kali-linux
.
Following has been installed
PRETTY_NAME="Kali GNU/Linux Rolling"
NAME="Kali GNU/Linux"
ID=kali
VERSION="2019.2"
VERSION_ID="2019.2"
ID_LIKE=debian
ANSI_COLOR="1;31"
HOME_URL="https://www.kali.org/"
SUPPORT_URL="https://forums.kali.org/"
BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.kali.org/"
If I then do $sudo apt-get update
, I get the following error
Get:1 http://kali.download/kali kali-rolling InRelease [30.6 kB]
Err:1 http://kali.download/kali kali-rolling InRelease
The following signatures were invalid: EXPKEYSIG ED444FF07D8D0BF6 Kali Linux Repository <devel@kali.org>

Then i manually install kali-archive-keyring_2020.2_all.deb with $sudo dpkg -i kali-archive-keyring_2020.2_all.deb
Then I do $sudo apt-get update
and it updates the repositories as expected.
Then I do $sudo apt-get upgrade
And so far it works I upgraded my kali to
PRETTY_NAME="Kali GNU/Linux Rolling"
NAME="Kali GNU/Linux"
ID=kali
VERSION="2021.4"
VERSION_ID="2021.4"
VERSION_CODENAME="kali-rolling"
ID_LIKE=debian
ANSI_COLOR="1;31"
HOME_URL="https://www.kali.org/"
SUPPORT_URL="https://forums.kali.org/"
BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.kali.org/"
Now when I execute the command $sudo apt-get upgrade
it says that there are packages kept back.

The following packages have been kept back:

From this point it doesn't matter what I am trying to install it always results in following error and the kali is broken I'm not able to further work with the OS.
/usr/bin/perl: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypt.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing package libc6:amd64 (--configure):
installed libc6:amd64 package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 127
Errors were encountered while processing:
libc6:amd64
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
For example if I try $sudo apt-get update
afterwards it results in
sudo: account validation failure, is your account locked?
I looked the errors up but I was not lucky finding any plausible solution for this. I would appreciate any help regarding this problem. Thanks in advance!
apt dist-upgrade
instead of justapt upgrade
. Unfortunately I think you've probably broken your Kali so just get the latest version and install that
