The Kali Rolling Repository
kali-rolling is our current active repository since the release of Kali 2016.1. Kali Rolling users are expected to have the following entries in their sources.list:
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
The kali sana is retired.
Transitioning From Kali 2.0 to Kali Rolling
Migrating from Kali sana (2.0) to Kali rolling is simple. As root, you can run the following commands and be on your way:
cat << EOF > /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib
EOF
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade
reboot
Please note that the Kali sana repositories will no longer be updated and will be EOL’d on the 15th of April 2016.
