Very quickly because I have things to do: you cannot install the latest version of TeamViewer on Kali Linux because of the error:
1 2 3 4 |
Unsatisfied dependencies: policykit-1 : Depends: pkexec (= 122-3) Depends: polkitd (= 122-3) Recommends: polkitd-pkla (>= 121+compat0.1) but it is not installable |
In the order you have tried:
-
dpkg -i teamviewer_15.64.3_amd64.deb
-
apt-get install teamviewer
-
dpkg --force-depends -i teamviewer_15.64.3_amd64.deb
-
apt --fix-broken install
apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
(and re-tried again all the above)wget -O ~/teamviewer.deb "https://download.teamviewer.com/download/linux/teamviewer_amd64.deb"
and thengdebi ~/teamviewer.deb
and you faced again theDependency is not satisfiable: policykit-1
wget https://download.teamviewer.com/download/linux/teamviewer_i386.deb
and thendpkg --add-architecture i386
anddpkg -i teamviewer_i386.deb
because some blog said that the *i386 was the right architecture but you have faced thePackage policykit-1 is not installed.
- Then purged that fucking package, downloaded the right version and then
dpkg --force-depends -i policykit-1_122-3_amd64.deb
but still no joy -
gdebi teamviewer_i386.deb
gave you hope but stillPackage policykit-1 is not installed.

Done.
