The package got removed from wheezy due to license problems:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=764937

It seems to link GPL code with code not compatible with the GPL and is thus undistributale. Thus it might not be a good idea to reintroduce it in Kali... we should look for other solutions. I don't know hom important that library is for cuckoo but maybe we can drop the dependency for a start and reach out to upstream developers about it.
