As others have said - this isn't a Kali Linux support channel. We're all volunteers here: Kali is Debian-derived but isn't Debian - this is best endeavours support only. You will get more support from https://www.kali.org/community/ the Kali Linux forums at https://forums.kali.org/ and you should search the Kali Linux bugs at https://bugs.kali.org/my_view_page.php You may wisth to point out to the folks at Kali that the report you've got also needs localising so that the error/bug report is not sent to Debian but to Kali. It looks as if someone has had almost exactly the same error after updating recently - it looks as if command-not-found was new to Kali Linux 2021.1 - https://www.kali.org/blog/kali-linux-2021-1-release/ and someone on Reddit is reporting https://www.reddit.com/r/Kalilinux/comments/l7srb7/could_not_find_commandnotfound_database_error/ One suggetion would be to run apt-file update as root/root equivalent using sudo which it appears has worked for some people, Another would be to run as root/root equivalent using sudo: update command-not-found to update the cache that command-not-found uses internally of packages that it can find. Alternatively, as root/sudo equivalent, you could try a reinstall of the package with apt install --reinstall command-not-found which should fix any missing parts and will reinitialise databases on install Hope this helps, All best, as ever, Andy Cater [With luck, the subject change here will indicate a better answer so users of Google or whatever will get a reliable answer and not worry on this one here again]
