I Have a problem with installing Torchat on my Kali Linux
this is my version
Linux ******* 4.18.0-kali2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.18.10-2kali1 (2018-10-09) x86_64 GNU/Linux.



In the Github site I downloaded Torchat but in the site it says that I need :The .deb package depends on python (>= 2.5, << 3.0) and python-wxgtk2.8 (aka wxPython) and tor.but I don't have python-wxgtk2.8 I have python-wxgtk3 and python3 so when I dpkg Torchat it says:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of torchat:torchat depends on python-wxgtk2.8; however:Package python-wxgtk2.8 is not installed.
besides I can't install python-wxgtk2.8
Help plz I need torchat to talk with someone

    Simplest solution is to use a proper distro. Kali is for penetration testing, not for installing services like Torchat. No, Kali is not "what all the cool hackers use", no matter what you read on some forums. Please also read this. Kali is well known to have trouble with standard packages. Just use something Debian-based instead.

    @dirkt I heard somewhere that Kali was Debian-based now... but there are dozens of Debian-based distros to choose from, some definitely much much much easier to use than Kali. TorChat's in Debian stable, there's no excuse it shouldn't work on a decent Debian. @ Bradass_FaLLaG do you have Debian repositories enabled? Can Kali even do that? Where'd you get the package you're trying to install?
