    issues while installing packages

    Message:

    This is what I keep getting while trying to install new packages or even while running the apt-get update. I have been told that ftp.harukasan.org is not an official kali repo, hence I might want to consider downloading the latest Kali package. The one I downloaded and installed on my VM is a very new one and hardly a couple of days back I made sure I had upgraded the distro as well.

    root@kali:/etc/apt# lsb_release -a
    No LSB modules are available.
    Distributor ID: Kali
    Description: Kali GNU/Linux Rolling
    Release: 2019.4
    Codename: kali-rolling

    Whatever packages I try downloading, whether its BeEF or openvas or others, I encounter the same issue. I cross checked the source.list from /etc/apt as well which should be fine.

    deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 2019.3 _Kali-rolling_ - Official Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20190827-10:52]/ kali-last-snapshot contrib main non-free


    #deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 2019.3 _Kali-rolling_ - Official Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20190827-10:52]/ kali-last-snapshot contrib main non-free


    deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib
    deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib

    Have followed several forums, but there is nothing clearly mentioned on ftp.harukasan.org or the workarounds for the same. I am out of ideas, kind of new to pen testing and red teaming tactics, but have been struggling to get the pre-requisites ready. Any help would be appreciated.

    There are a few mirrors, and you'll be redirected to the fastest mirror (with the entry in sources.list). You can override this and select a mirror: http://http.kali.org/README.mirrorlist
