HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM ??? THANKS

Did you run

as suggested by the error message?

If so, what happened?

It is entirely possible that that repo was off-line or overloaded at the time. That does happen from time to time; I have experienced it.

Try again later and let us know what happens.

Also, please learn how to use "Code" tags, which become available when you click the "Go Advanced" button at the bottom of the "compose post" window. They make reading terminal output much easier.

thanks for your kind reply .....i tried your code and my terminal reply me...

what now should i do????????

The first thing I would do upon seeing that message is verify my internet connection is working. Start from the basics...

Can you try running apt-get update again?

The version of iceweasel in the kali repository you're accessing is now 38.7.1 and the version you're trying to download, 38.7.0, has recently been removed, hence the 404.

yeah apt-get update is working but error is coming when i hit the command apt-get upgrade

N.B internet connection is working fine.

how to solve this problem??

can anyone give me instruction to skip this package installation and finishing this process of upgrading...

it is definitely not available. Looks like that is an error on http://security.kali.org. Probably you can ask them. Probably it is fixed already. Or you may try to uninstall it before upgrade and reinstall it afterward.

To mark a package as held back, preventing it from being automatically installed, upgraded or removed:

Remember to unhold it when the package becomes available again.

Thanks all man for helping me specially "Hydrurga"..........

Your trick work like charm...

after holding and then unholding my problem is sloved now

Great to hear, Hasan. Can you please mark the thread as "Solved"?
