    Trouble doing updates

    Hello, I have installed 2020.1. Everything seems fine, but I am not able to install new packages. I keep getting the E:/ unable to locate package message.

    I was trying doing some reading and it seems like it might be my sources list. I checked it out with nano and I only have one repository listed. I do not have the src one...

    I was wondering, what are the repositories I should have? I believe it is two from what I have read and seen in documentation...

    This is what my Sources list has in it:
    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

    When I try to update, it goes out looking for headers and to the mirrors, then tries to connect and I get a message that says:
    E: Release file for http://http.kali.org/kali/dists/kali-rolling/InRelease is not valid yet (invalid for another 6h 24min 19s).
    Updates for this repository will not be applied.

    That looks a lot like your clock isn't set correctly. If you have the ntpdate package installed, try (as root) ntpdate -u pool.ntp.org. If not, you can set it manually with the date command.
