[Bug]: proot-distro on Termux v4.25.0 missing support for --override-url and Kali distro

[nmohi]

Problem description

When trying to install Kali Linux using proot-distro on Termux, the documented flag --override-url is not recognized in the current version distributed via pkg.

Expected behavior: Kali should be installable via --override-url override, as supported in the latest GitHub source.

Actual behavior: Termux's proot-distro v4.25.0 throws the error:

Error: got unknown option '--override-url'

Also, running proot-distro login kali returns:

Error: unknown distribution 'kali' was requested for logging in.

And even proot-distro --version is not recognized as a valid command.

This makes it currently impossible to use Kali with proot-distro, despite documentation and official scripts existing to support it.

Device: Nothing Phone 1
OS: Android 14
Termux: latest from F-Droid
proot-distro: v4.25.0 (from banner)

What steps will reproduce the bug?

1. Install Termux from F-Droid

2. Run pkg update && pkg install proot-distro -y

3. Attempt to run:

   proot-distro install --override-alias kali --override-url https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EXALAB/proot-distro/master/official/kali.sh

4. Observe the error: Error: got unknown option '--override-url'

5. Try proot-distro login kali → Error: unknown distribution 'kali'

6. Try proot-distro --version → Error: unknown command '--version'

What is the expected behavior?

proot-distro should recognize the --override-url option, allow installation of custom distros like Kali, and return version info with --version. These are present in the GitHub version of proot-distro but not in the Termux package (v4.25.0).

An update to the package or temporary workaround would help users follow officially documented instructions.
