Ive edited the /etc/apt/sources.list with deb http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org main, and downloaded the keys as well, and when i update apt-get its successful. Now i type; apt-get install tor tor-geoipdb, and i get the following reponse

:~$ sudo apt-get install tor tor-geoipdb

Package tor is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package tor has no installation candidate

The website states that; The DNS name deb.torproject.org is actually a set of independent servers in a DNS round robin configuration. If you for some reason cannot access it you might try to use the name of one of its part instead. Try deb-master.torproject.org, mirror.netcologne.de or tor.mirror.youam.de. is this the reason?
