Summary0004007: keimpx and other applications reliant on the impacket library not working
Description

In the current install (kali 2017, updated today) the following installed applications do not work:
keimpx
polenum
elements of enum4linux (as they have a dependency on polenum)

~$ uname -a
Linux kali 4.9.0-kali4-amd64 0000001 SMP Debian 4.9.25-1kali1 (2017-05-04) x86_64 GNU/Linux

Steps To Reproduce

$ keimpx
You need to install Python Impacket library first.
Get it from Core Security's Google Code repository:
sudo apt-get -y remove python-impacket # to remove the system-installed outdated version of the library
cd /tmp
svn checkout http://impacket.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ impacket
cd impacket
python setup.py build
sudo python setup.py install

$ polenum
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/polenum", line 33, in <module>
from impacket.dcerpc import dcerpc_v4, dcerpc, transport, samr
ImportError: cannot import name dcerpc_v4

Additional Information

smbmap seems to have been recently fixed (see issue 4004 - https://bugs.kali.org/view.php?id=4004 )

The above applications are reliant on impacket v0.9.12 or .13.

Some of their functionality is present in applications such as redsnarf:
https://github.com/nccgroup/redsnarf
or crackmapexec:
https://github.com/byt3bl33d3r/CrackMapExec/

So outdated applications that won't be patched to use the later impacket libraries might be worth retiring.

sparta's issue is a new one, not related to impacket but to qt4. I created a new bug report: 4454

SPARTA uses a script reliant on impacket so there was also an issue there. This is fixed in the latest commit of SPARTA: http://github.com/SECFORCE/sparta

So keimpx is the only application not working currently and it has been broken for more than a year. I guess the few complaints received means that we can safely remove the application. It's listed in 2 kali metapackages however that will have to be updated.

The package has not seen any upstream activity since 2016: https://github.com/inquisb/keimpx/commits/master
So it seems unlikely that it will be fixed any time soon. I still filed https://github.com/inquisb/keimpx/issues/21 just in case.

all packages have been fixed except keimpx. It was unmaintained, we removed it.
