Did sudo apt update -y
first before anything it calls for paths at kali.org, which do not exist. I personally went to kalli.org with my browser and got 404s for those paths, so I know that they do not exist. Posted about this problem, and was told again to run sudo apt update -y. Thinking "ok coo,, maybe they created those paths and put the venv files there?"

ran apt update -y as directed, results: missing public keys and other errors as shown:
sudo apt update -y

W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Tried sudo apt-get install python3-venv again, same paths do not exist errors 4x.

Can you -
1: Create the paths that are requested by the command?
2: Put the venv files there?
3: Make the public keys available?

W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

As long as you don't update your Kali key, APT uses old index files, which refer to files that don't exist anymore in the package repositories. The problem will go away after you update the Kali GPG key (see link above from @kali-bugreport) and run apt update successfully.

Closing as this is not a bug anyway
