Could you check the w3af version and python-xdot version you have?

dpkg -s python-xdot
dpkg -s w3af

w3af doesn't work with xdot package (it's only for python3) but it worked with python-xdot in Kali.

Thanks

No answer to our questions and anyway w3af is no longer supported as the upstream maintainer was no longer able to cope with external changes.
