After installing Kali Linux from an ISO file, you may need to manually update the kali linux repository sources.list file with the official list of repositories.
This guide will show you how to add Kali Linux repositories to sources.list.
Apt requires software repositories to download packages and install them on your computer.
So, let’s begin.
Kali Linux official repository
First after installing a clean Kali Linux the sources.list contains only tow repository and they are
## Regular repositories deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali main non-free contrib deb http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free
if you try to do update it may update a few apps and if you try to install a new app 90% it won’t and it will give you a message like this one E:Unable to locate package
The simplest way is to edit the
/etc/apt/sources.list
Clear your Sources.list file by removing everything inside to do so please follow those steps:
Terminal command:
sudo mousepad /etc/apt/sources.list
after this commend, you will get something like this
now remove every line of them and add this new lines
kali linux repository
kali linux 2020
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
Kali Linux 2017.1
Kali Linux 2017.1 sources.list use the repo below:
deb http://repo.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib
For Kali Linux 2016 β Kali Rolling use the repo below:
# For source package access, uncomment the following line deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
Kali Linux 2.0
For Kali Linux 2.0 β Kali Sana uses the repo below:
No more update for Kali Sana but not for long so please upgrade to Kali 2016.1
# Regular repositories deb http://http.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib deb http://security.kali.org/kali-security sana/updates main contrib non-free <h1>Source repositories</h1> deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib deb-src http://security.kali.org/kali-security sana/updates main contrib non-free
Kali Linux 1.x
For Kali Linux 1.x users use the repo below:
No more update for Kali 1.0 please upgrade to new Kali 2016
## Regular repositories deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali main non-free contrib deb http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free <h2>Source repositories</h2> deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali main non-free contrib deb-src http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free
Save and close the file. Details and explanations can be found in adding official Kali Linux Repositories page.
Now after we are done adding Kali Linux Repositories it’s time to do Clean, update, upgrade and dist-upgrade for Kali installation, to do so follow those commands
apt-get clean & apt-get update & apt-get upgrade -y & apt-get dist-upgrade -y
How to update Kali Linux repository
To update Kali Linux repository first log in as root or user and start the terminal.
In the terminal, check the current list of apt repositories present on the system.
cat /etc/apt/sources.list
If there are no APT repositories, paste the code below to add them.
sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list&lt;&lt;EOF 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 EOF
The command shown above will add standard and source repositories to /etc/apt/sources.list .
Confirm that they are added and Update the list of your packages:
sudo apt update
- The Kali Rolling Repository
- Kali sana (2.0) Repositories
- Kali moto (1.0) Repositories
- Kali Linux Repositories
The kali-rolling Repository
In contrast to kali-dev, kali-rolling is expected to be of better quality because itβs managed by a tool that ensures the installability of all the packages it contains. The tool picks updated packages from kali-dev and copies them to kali-rolling only when they have been verified to be installable.

Kali moto (1.0)
Kali Linux 2.0
and whatss the error you are geting
same problem of me…
i'm using kali linux 1.1.0
There is no more support for Kali linux 1.0
you should upgrade to new Kali 2016
anyway you may be able to update using this repo
deb http://old.kali.org/kali moto main non-free contrib
add it to sources.list
i do that on my new brand kali but have some fails that get erorre 404 file not found thats okay ?
forget to say i use kali rolling
if you can copy the error and post it here that would help …
hello, may I get some help from you?
actually I'm newbie to use Kali Linux, in my condition I have installed Kali Linux 1.1.0..
can I get some explanation about some different item between Repository Kali Sana (2.0) and Repository Kali Moto (1.0)..
Thank you very much…
hi there , its not about different item its about the feed service
plus new and updated tools won't be listed on old feed service
so you wont get the latest tools and you should upgrade to kali rolling 2016.1
and you are welcome π

Hi Walid.
I was wondering if you could perhaps help me out? I have just recently received an old laptop and decided to install Kali Sana (2.0) onto it, however I could install various apps like Inkscape and other Debian based apps by using the command: apt-get install inkscape (or whatever I want to install). I even installed WINE and my Windows programs worked fine on it. I did upgrade to Kali Rolling (2016-1) the other day and everything worked fine except my sound drivers were missing. I decided to get the Kali Rolling ISO and installed it onto the laptop as a clean installation and everything is working 100% except: apt-get install (program name). I have tried to add the Repositories listed on the official Kali website to the sources list ( /etc/apt/sources.list ), but it still does not work. Any ideas how I can get it fixed? Or should I just install Kali Sana in VirtualBox and copy the sources.list info from there?
Thank you in advance π

Hi Walid.
It seems that it's all working now after I added the following repos
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
# For source package access, uncomment the following line
deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
and typing in the following
apt-get clean && apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y
Now I can finally use the apt-get install (program) command with no problems.
Thank you for your post, and keep up the good work π
Ashton Whitemonk
the sources.list file of Kali Sana is not like the one of kali rolling and it wont work that way …
okay that's great,
i hope you will always find what you need in this blog π

So please I'm new to kali. I'm using the kali 1.1.0 and i don't want to update to kali sana. Because i have Mac Os theme as my interface and i still want to maintain that, but I'm afraid it will turn out to be different thing when i upgrade to sana so i feel pretty okay using the kali 1.1.0. Is there any way i can get my kali updated without upgrading to sana. Because i hate sana. And i don't like the interface of it.
you can keep kali 1.1.0 but you will need to do the update by your self ..
you need to download the files unpack and make and make install
and 90% you will get error you have to deal with ,,,
even kali sana wont receive updates for long time , we are on Kali Linux 2016 now which is the newest
Hello, first of all, thanks for this tutorial. I have a problem and I hope you will help me to solve it.
So, I downloaded kali linux 2016.1 on the official website, and I installed it on VMware Workstation. After that, I wanted to install vmware tools with this command : apt-get update
apt-get install open-vm-tools-desktop fuse
reboot
But it didn't work. So I saw you tutorial and I added repositories in the file.
After, I entered this command : apt-get clean && apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y && apt-get dist-upgrade -y.
30mn after, the upgrade finished and I was able to install vmware tools with the previous command.
Here it is my problem. Now I'm updated and Maltego disappeared !! I can see Maltego when I'm writing this command : dpkg -l but when I search it, I have : "no found".
Can you help me ? Thanks a lot and sorry for my english, I'm french.
work, thanks you are my hero
but if i start for example (wine idm.exe)
i have messeges : wine: bad exe
help me please
its wired what happen with you … i don't know if i could help without log file !
i need to know why it disappeared and that's what you want too …
first sorry for taking too long to reply … now do you still have this problem and if you fix it what did you do to fix it ?
your english is good
the erorr is with wine not with your sources.list Repositories anymore
so you need to check a tutorial for how to use wine … i will try to make one soon

how you are trying to install it in VMware /virtualbox ?
when you get to this step click on no then continue
A network mirror can be used to supplement the software that is included on the CD-Rom. This may also make newer versions of sofrware available.

which version of kali linux are you using ?
and can you show me your /etc/apt/sources.list
Hi Walid, I am using Kali linux Rolling.
can you show me your /etc/apt/sources.list: heres what i get;
root@kali:~# nano /etc/apt/sources.list
#
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 2016.1 _Kali-rolling_ – Official Snapshot amd64 L$
#deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 2016.1 _Kali-rolling_ – Official Snapshot amd64 LI$
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
# deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main ccontrib non-free
ok change your file to look like this :
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
# For source package access, uncomment the following line
deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
and in the past did you turn off your computer while it was updating ?
oh ok so i delete everything currently in the sources list and change it to:
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
# For source package access, uncomment the following line
deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
and no I have not but the connection to the internet goes off sometimes and i also try to pause the updates with "cmd+z"
here's type those Commands
1) apt-get update –fix-missing
2) apt-get clean && apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
then try to install headers by this Command
apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
did that work for you ?
Hi Walid thanks for checking in. I have not been able to check it yet. Once i do i'd get back to you.
Hi Walid after doing the second step, i get asked
Do i want to continue? Y/n ?
should i choose Y?
Yes choose Y and if ask more choose Y
Hi Walid I followed all the steps rebooted and then tried to install the driver again and i get this

wine is already the newest version (1.8.5-1).
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
google-chrome-stable : Depends: libappindicator1 but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
root@kali:/home/kali/Downloads# wine
it looks like wine32 is missing, you should install it.
as root, please execute "apt-get install wine32"

wine –help Display this help and exit
wine –version Output version information and exit
