    w3af broken after update on Kali 1.0.7

    After the latest apt update, w3af failed to start with the following message: Exception: "There was an error while importing w3af.plugins.output.console: "No module named darts.lib.utils.lru"."

    I couldn't find a distro package, so the following steps helped me for anyone else who encounters this:

    Make sure you have python-setuptools installed
    Code:
    apt-get install python-setuptools
    git clone https://github.com/deterministic-arts/DartsPyLRU.git
    cd DartsPyLRU
    python setup.py install
    Then w3af should launch without issue.

    I would highly recommend this to be posted on the bug tracker - http://bugs.kali.org
    This is a Kali-Linux support forum - not general IT/infosec help.

    Useful Commands: OS, Networking, Hardware, Wi-Fi
    Troubleshooting: Kali-Linux Installation, Repository, Wi-Fi Cards (Official Docs)
    Hardware: Recommended 802.11 Wireless Cards
