library requirements errors

[ilyas001]

hello guys i have a hard time trying to install anything on my kali linux , i did a upgrade and update i keep having libraries requirements errors , and  circular dependancies  (it means that to install a library 1 that i need to install a library2  b i need that library2 in the first place to install that library1 so you are blocked in circles ) any solutions ? thanks

i tried kali last year and i also had problems installing software; I found the repos were always down, are they reliable now?

You need to post your terminal output to resolve these dependency issues

or here we go i will just copy the errors parts

checking for libxml-2.0 >= 2.4.10 atk >= 1.0.0 gtk+-2.0 >= 2.0.0... Package libxml-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libxml-2.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'libxml-2.0' found
configure: error: Library requirements (libxml-2.0 >= 2.4.10 atk >= 1.0.0 gtk+-2.0 >= 2.0.0) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.

configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 libglade-2.0 libgnomeui-2.0) were not met:

No package 'libglade-2.0' found
No package 'libgnomeui-2.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables ETHERAPE_CFLAGS
and ETHERAPE_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
