Summary0003103: The iKAT package is no longer present since Kali 2.0
Description

Hello,
I would like to report a serious bug: the ikat package, which was present for long years ago in backtrack and kali v1 is no longer present on the current repos though it is mentioned on the "kali-linux-full" section on http://tools.kali.org/kali-metapackages

Please be kind to fix it :)

Steps To Reproduce
  1. apt-cache search ikat
  2. <Nothing> printed
Additional Information

Enabling the old moto repo in sources.list (deb http://old.kali.org/kali moto main non-free contrib) allow to install it, but you know that it will break stuff.

iKat will not be re-added to Kali in the near future as it has been depreciated. The metapackage list on the tools page is outdated and when we get the time, will fix any outstanding packages in the list.
