Hi, you can try to comment the line 49 of the katoolin.py setup script and save them.
after:
sudo wget -q -O - https://archive.kali.org/archive-key.asc | apt-key add

sudo apt-get update

sudo katoolin

katoolin > 1 (for repo menu)

1 (for add repo)
2 (for update repos)

after you can install your wanted tools.
it works on my Ubuntu 18.

hoping to have helped you
and please excuse me for my english level ;)

Good evening,

@Cyberhan123 i tried your solution, but i got the same error message.

What do you want to do ?> 1
Executing: /tmp/apt-key-gpghome.IWpav2r2lI/gpg.1.sh --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys ED444FF07D8D0BF6
gpg: key ED444FF07D8D0BF6: 1 duplicate signature removed
gpg: key ED444FF07D8D0BF6: 142 Beglaubigungen wegen fehlender Schlüssel nicht geprüft
gpg: Schlüssel ED444FF07D8D0BF6: "Kali Linux Repository devel@kali.org" nicht geändert
gpg: Anzahl insgesamt bearbeiteter Schlüssel: 1
gpg: unverändert: 1

It seems that the key is not valid anymore. Is there an alternative for Katoolin or another solution?

Thx

I tried replacing the public keyServer from "pgp.mit.edu" to "pool.sks-keyservers.net" and it worked perfectly. For this open katoolin.py file in read and write mode and replace the keyserver (line 49) "pgp.mit.edu" to "pool.sks-keyservers.net" and run the katoolin.

hope this helps.

Hi everybody,
