When I ran apt-cache on the kali-linux-full package, I didn't see w3af. I'm guessing that's why python-webkit is no longer in the repos, either.

If you want to use w3af, looks like you'll have to install it manually, along with its dependencies. Personally, I avoid that sort of thing; has caused me problems, but your mileage may vary.
