Package chromium is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, is only available from another source
E: Package 'chromium' has no installation candidate

How can I fix it?

The Chromium web browser package is named chromium-browser, not chromium in Kali Linux. To install it open the terminal and type:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install chromium-browser

I needed Chromium as well on Kali 2020 and i did this to get it:

Add debian repository to /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb stable main contrib non-free

The run update:

sudo apt update

Then install Chromium:

sudo apt install chromium chromium-l10n

It worked fine for me, maybe that’s not the best solution but at least it works.
