I recently shifted WSL since I already turned it for Docker from using VM due to space in my drive. I installed Kali Linux and ubuntu in WSL.

Ubuntu worked perfectly without a hitch but when i upgrade my Kali Linux it got struck in installing libc6 I tried several option from Stack Overflow from previous question on ubuntu but none of them worked for me. I am using Windows 11 and download Kali Linux using both store and wsl --install.

sudo apt install libc6

Well don't have much to say about this, but i got it solved using the following commands:

sudo mv /usr/sbin/telinit /usr/sbin/telinit.bak 
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/true /usr/sbin/telinit

I don't know how this solved my problem. But it really worked for me. I tried searching in online blogs rather than asking AI; I previously tried AI for code generation but it leave me a bitter taste while I was learning something new to me. Should have used AI before.
