IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT about 1 month ago

AI Summary: The task involves understanding the upcoming major revamp of the Kali in Batch package manager. This revamp will require users to uninstall all existing packages before updating due to backward incompatibility. The new system will allow for more flexible package management through the use of INSTALL.sh and UNINSTALL.sh scripts and a DEPENDENCIES.txt file, enabling more complex package structures and upgrade checks based on version numbers rather than file content.
