I understand this has been asked before but none of those answers helped much, I was able to install synaptic with no issues whatsoever but whenever I try installing software center I get this:




root@host:~# apt-get install software-center
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

Reading state information... Done
Package software-center is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'software-center' has no installation candidate




Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

  • Hello and welcome to the U&L stack exchange site! May I ask, what are you trying to accomplish by installing "software-center" on Kali Linux? Kali Linux is a penetration testing distro that comes with pretty much everything you need out of the box and is really geared towards being used as a Live environment. What does "software-center" have that you need and why do you need "software-center" specifically?
