Summary0003489: package kali-linux-full not installable on debian stretch
Description

kali-linux-full depends on both :

  • w3af (from debian)
  • recon-ng (from kali)

Problem is that :

  • w3af depends on w3af-console which itself depends on python-pypdf
  • recon-ng depends on python-pypdf2 (from debian)
  • python-pypdf2 is registered in apt as replacing and breaking python-pypdf

Hence the impossibility to install kali-linux-full

Steps To Reproduce

apt-get install kali-linux-full after having added the kali repos in /etc/sources.list and "apt-get update"

content of sources.list (handtyped, sorry for any typo):
deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian stretch main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ stretch/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free

Additional Information

Workaround is to grep the packages that are marked as "depends" in "apt-cache show kali-linux-full" and install the whole lot, choosing either w3af or recon-ng

This is not a design goal, the Kali repos are not interchangeable with Debian.
