    missing package files in apt repo

    I'm trying to install kali-linux-top10 using the raspberry pi 2 version and it looks like the index of the deb files is not updated.

    Here's the error:
    Code:
    After this operation, 789 MB of additional disk space will be used.
    Do you want to continue? [Y/n] 
    Err http://http.kali.org/kali/ sana/main kali-linux armhf 1.67

    I've apt-get update'd and get the same result.

    in looking at the files here http://http.kali.org/kali/pool/main/k/kali-meta/ I don't see files for version 1.67, but do see them for 1.55.25, 2.41 and 3.1
    I'm guessing that the index for the apt repository needs to be updated to include the current package files that are available.

    Can anyone here help with that?

    No such luck. After running your apt update command, I still get the same result when I try to install kali-linux-top10.

    Yup, I just verified it. The apt repo is listing a non-existent package version for kali-linux-top10 in http://http.kali.org/dists/sana/main...hf/Packages.gz
    That file has a recent timestamp but doesn't appear to be properly updated.

    Who maintains that repo that I can contact and let them know about the problem?

    It looks like there is a mirror that is out of date. It has been removed from the rotation until the problem has been resolved.
