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

Did the final curl complain about an expired certificate?
curl https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/
If so, that might indicate you've got OpenSSL 1.0, try
openssl version
If that's the case, then really you need to get that (and/or the underlying OS) updated.
In the short term, we can address this by commenting out the expired root in your trust store.
sudo -s
cp /etc/ca-certificates.conf ~/ca-certificates.conf.bkup
sed -i '/^mozilla\/DST_Root_CA_X3.crt$/ s/^/!/' /etc/ca-certificates.conf
update-ca-certificates
Then try the curl again
curl https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/
It should no longer complain about the certificate having expired. If it now complains that the certificate isn't trusted, then the X1 cert isn't properly installed and we'll have to look at that.

I have done all these and it still happens. Is there perhaps a tool that will set this up? Thanks.

Ok will try these things. Does that it's an ovh debain have anything to do with it? Hosted by them and they may frown on tor.

You'll see this because your system doesn't trust the cert chain.
You're not seeing a certificate warning because you've got output suppressed (the -q in wget's arguments)
If you run
wget https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89.asc
I suspect you'll see the certificate warning.
You need to fix that before anything suggested here is going to work - if the cert chain isn't trusted then apt isn't going to access the repository's indexes, and so won't even see what packages are there, much less install them.
As apt didn't grab an updated version for you (which may be due to other repo misconfigurations) you probably want to grab and install the cert manually
# Verify that this gives a cert warning
curl https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/
curl -k --output "/tmp/ISRG_Root_X1.crt" "https://letsencrypt.org/certs/isrgrootx1.pem.txt"
sudo mv /tmp/ISRG_Root_X1.crt /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/
sudo update-ca-certificates
# Now try again
curl https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/
If that final curl now works, run apt-get update and you should find apt no longer complains about the tor repo

Maybe copy paste error. It must be one line and you must be root or type
'sudo' in front of it. Maybe you can better copy from here:
3. Then add the gpg key ...
https://support.torproject.org/apt/
> Simply displays a message "no valid openpgp data found". My sources file
If this message appears again, install gpg:
sudo apt update && apt -y install gnupg
