Thank you for your time

What to do?
It’s ALWAYS advisable to try to install applications from Package Installer – try to install Brave Browser from there… That’s why the Dev Team created it – to be a kind of mini “app store” that allows access to apps that are not on the official repository (or newer versions of those apps)
Edit: as you noticed “Brave” is not in the repository – you can find out what packages are available in the repository using the “apt search” command. In your case:
apt search braveP.

see the “Debian 9+, Ubuntu 16.04+ and Mint 18+”
To update brave browser:
sudo apt-get install –only-upgrade brave-browserthank you

Hi kaye,
The site you linked to has the following instructions to install the Brave browser on systems running Debian 9+, Ubuntu 16.04+ and Mint 18+:
“If you get gnutls_handshake() errors after adding the Brave repository on Debian 9, you may need to uninstall old conflicting packages.
sudo apt install apt-transport-https curl
sudo curl -fsSLo /usr/share/keyrings/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg
echo “deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg arch=amd64] https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/ stable main”|sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/brave-browser-release.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install brave-browser”
Did you follow all those instructions? Did they work for you?
(If not, perhaps antiX-21 is too new…)
