You need to NOT mix all the different repositories.

Remove the Kali sana lines.
Remove the Ubuntu saucy lines.
Remove the Debian jessie lines.

You will run into issues when you mix and match everything.

here is the content of my sources.list file after removing those lines:
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free

Change the mirrors in your sources.list file. Here is the link (http://http.kali.org/README.mirrorlist).
For eg. Selecting one of the mirrors from the list would make your sources.list file as:




deb http://kali.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
deb-src http://kali.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free



Then try


$ sudo apt update

$ sudo apt install snort

That should do it.
