Summary	0004039: metasploit-framework - Remove msfupdate
Description	Hi, when installing metasploit-framework there is the file "msfupdate". This file is intended for updating the git version of metasploit and should not be run on kali. As this confuses some users, we think it would be better to remove the file at all in the kali package. Could you please add the removal of the file to the package rules? Discussion about the removal can be found on the official bug tracker: https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/issues/8448

sbrun 2017-05-30 13:56 manager ~0006775	msfupdate was using apt. Since version 4.14.21 in Kali, it doesn't work anymore. In new version 4.14.22-0kali1, msfupdate is not installed anymore.
