    Updates on 8 Mar 2016 broke msfconsole

    An update to rake that was pushed today results in the error message "Could not find rake-10.4.2" when you run msfconsole. "rake --version" shows the version number as 10.5.0. Edit: Rolled back, placed rake on hold, same error. See edits below.

    Even after removing 10.5 and reinstalling rake 10.4.2, msfconsole does not seem to want to work.

    Code:
    root@kail:/usr/share/metasploit-framework# gem uninstall -i /usr/share/rubygems-integration/all rake
    Remove executables:
       rake
    
    in addition to the gem? [Yn]  n
    Executables and scripts will remain installed.
    Successfully uninstalled rake-10.5.0
    root@kail:/usr/share/metasploit-framework# gem install rake -v '10.4.2'
    Fetching: rake-10.4.2.gem (100%)
    Successfully installed rake-10.4.2
    Parsing documentation for rake-10.4.2
    Installing ri documentation for rake-10.4.2
    Done installing documentation for rake after 1 seconds
    1 gem installed
    root@kail:/usr/share/metasploit-framework# msfconsole
    Could not find rake-10.4.2 in any of the sources
    Run `bundle install` to install missing gems.
    root@kail:/usr/share/metasploit-framework# rake --version
    rake, version 10.4.2
    root@kail:/usr/share/metasploit-framework#
    Edit: Rolled back my VM and placed rake on hold, but I receive the same error.

    Code:
    root@kali:~# apt-mark hold rake
    rake set on hold.
    
     <-- updates -->
    
    oot@kali:~# msfconsole
    Could not find rake-10.4.2 in any of the sources
    Run `bundle install` to install missing gems.
    root@kali:~# rake --version
    rake, version 10.4.2

    An update (b1) was pushed sometime last night that appears to have fixed this. Thanks!

    Unpacking metasploit-framework (4.11.14-0kali1+b1) over (4.11.14-0kali1) ...

    In the future, issues such as this should be submitted to bugs.kali.org
