i am trying hard to update my system which is parrot but i am unable to do that
when i type sudo apt-get update , these are the following errors come
E: The repository ‘http:/deb.torproject.org/torproject.org stretch Release’ does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can’t be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
Hi, did you add custom repository ? If so this is a really bad idea, i suggest you go back to the standard parrot repository, to do so follow the official documentation:
Problems with respository after todays updates m8.
E: The repository ‘Index of /parrot/ parrot Release’ no longer has a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can’t be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

Well first of all you’re not using the correct command as the documentation instructs you to use
parrot-upgrade
But also it qppears that if you gave previously selected to use the deprecated mirror-selector pkg it will redirect you and call for https (you DO NOT need to use https and it DOES NOT mean it will be any more secure or safe) so edit your sources.d/parrot.list to be http.
hey man i searched on net how to add repository ,and i got something to type command on my terminal and now when i do sudo apt-get update,i get this error
E: Type ‘new’ is not known on line 7 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
E: The list of sources could not be read.

E: The repository ‘http:/deb.torproject.org/torproject.org stretch Release’ does not have a Release file.
