sudo whonix_repository doesnt work

applying

sudo whonix_repository

showing

ERROR --repository must be either stable , stable-proposed-updates , testers or developers.

so when open “whonix repository” or “setup wizard” it shouldnt say “sudo whonix_repository” rather it should say:-

“sudo whonix --repository”

then choose one of these repos

  • stable
  • testers
  • developer

or any form u like …

so the working command is for testers as e.g

sudo whonix --repository testers

whonixcheck and whonix-setup-wizard mention sudo whonix_repository. At that point however, there is the wrong place to explain the whole command.

sudo whonix_repository is supposed to be self explanatory.

man whonix_repository

https://github.com/Whonix/whonix-repository/blob/master/man/whonix_repository.8.ronn

whonix_repository is the name of the tool. --repository is a command line switch.

Maybe the error message should give a full example instead?
