更换Parrot的默认更新源
首先要注意Parrot官方软件库的默认更新源文件不在
/etc/apt/sources.list
而是
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/parrot.list
打开系统/etc/apt/目录下名为sources.list.parrot的文件
会看到如下说明
# This file is empty, feel free to
# add here your custom APT repositories
# The standard Parrot repositories
# are NOT here. If you want to
# edit them, take a look into
# /etc/apt/sources.list.d/parrot.list
# If you want to change the
# default parrot repositories by selectng
# another localized mirror,
# then use the command
# parrot-mirror-selector
#
# and see its usage message to
# know what mirrors are available
etc/apt/sources.list
可被用来添加用户自己需要的apt源
注意
3.7版本去掉了parrot-mirror-selector这个工具，而是通过服务器根据ip自动重定向到最近的更新源，直接使用
apt update
即可
如果有必要，请参考
镜像列表选择离你最近的更新源手动添加到/etc/apt/souces.list.d/parrot.list并注释掉原文件中的内容。
(例)修改更新源:
sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list.d/parrot.list
注释原有内容,添加
deb http://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/parrot/ parrot main contrib non-free
适用于3.6及以下版本
使用
parrot-mirror-selector
更改默认的更新源
终端输入
parrot-mirror-selector
会列出所有可用更新源
