i installed checkra1n in and updated and upgraded kali linux OS.

but i got this error message just after typing the command "sudo apt-get install checkra1n" :

Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies: checkra1n : Depends: libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 (>= 2.30.0) but it is not installable E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

does someone know what the hell this means ?

cuz i searched for this "libgdk-pixbuf2.30.0" and found nothing

i even tried to install the package by "apt-get install"

and THANK YOU

System brick risk - do not run this unless you know what you're doing! At least for my system this command removed 200+ libraries and crashed the whole UI, couldn't even boot the machine (even in recovery mode). I had to use a live USB to chroot into the system, check the apt-get history, reinstall everything it had removed, then reboot my system. Honestly my fault for not scrutinizing the command more before I ran it, but don't want others to make the same mistake.
