[tor-relays] Debian is not allowing tor to update despite it being listed as a trusted respritory

Your sources.list file entry looks incorrect.  I would definitely not 
recommend using trust=yes for a repo like tor, as it bypasses apt's 
security checks.

According to the instructions you linked 
<https://support.torproject.org/apt/tor-deb-repo/>, your source for the 
tor packages should be listed in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/tor.list as 
something like:

> deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/tor-archive-keyring.gpg] 
> https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org buster main
> deb-src [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/tor-archive-keyring.gpg] 
> https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org buster main

The instructions tell you how to import the repo key as well:

> | gpg --dearmor | tee /usr/share/keyrings/tor-archive-keyring.gpg 
> >/dev/null
