I ran a dist-upgrade on my Ubuntu 20 machine and ran into some error with the packages. I tried to apt —-fix-broken but I was still unable to get past the errors. I decided to do a reboot and I now have Kali in my startup instead of Ubuntu. However while trying to boot Kali is stuck in Failed to start mailman master queue. I’ve done some research and believe this was caused by katoolin. I’ve had katoolin with only a few select tool on my pc for a long time and done several dist-upgrades and never run into this problem. Any ideas how I can reverse this process and boot back into my Ubuntu directly without a fresh install?

    Yes, it definitely was caused by Katolin. The instructions explicitly say to remove the repos after installing the tools. And I’ve had katoolin with only a few select tool on my pc for a long time and done several dist-upgrades and never run into this problem is simply not true. Any update to the system with the Kali repos would turn it into Kali. Please reinstall. – ChanganAuto May 11 '21 at 11:13
  • Thanks for your help but unfortunately it didn’t work for me . But I was able to remove katoolin in tty and recover Ubuntu. The only problem is my desktop wouldn’t load. I’ve tried sudo apt-get install Ubuntu-desktop but I get an error of unmet dependencies. When I tried sudo aptitude install Ubuntu-desktop I get held or brokers packages error. I also noticed that when apt update also won’t fetch repositories even though I’m connect to my wifi. – frizzy m May 12 '21 at 01:12
