Help me to solve it

Hi @Sahil_Kumar

Parrot repositories already contain virtualbox. It looks like you added the virtualbox Debian repo using a general command that works on Debian, but needs to be modified to run on Debian-based distro. In your virtualbox.list file, you will need to change the word ara to either bullseye or bookworm.

sudo pluma /etc/apt/source.list.d/virtualbox.list

Let me know how that works and we will tackle the dreaded “Key is stored in legacy trusted.gpg keyring (/etc/apt/trusted.gpg), see the DEPRECATION section in apt-key(8) for details”

Hi sir, it is 2 weeks that I perform an update with Parrot installed on VM Box version 6 with the apt command and it tell me all packages are up to date. Is this not unusual?
Thank’s beforehand for any answer any one. (Security Edition)
