Summary0004056: python-rfidiot should not exit at module import time
Description

Initial title: scapy crash when entering specific command

When trying to list out the modules available in scapy to get more information about them, the program terminates when you issue 'help('modules')' (without the outer quotes), or type help and then type modules.

This does not occur when trying to get help for keywords or topics, only modules.

Steps To Reproduce

Run scapy
at the >>> prompt enter help('modules')

Alternatively:
Run scapy
at the >>> prompt enter help()
then type modules

This results in the same behavior.

Additional Information

Here is the error message:

WARNING: No route found for IPv6 destination :: (no default route?)
INFO: Can't import python ecdsa lib. Disabled certificate manipulation tools
Welcome to Scapy (unknown.version)

help('modules')

Please wait a moment while I gather a list of all available modules...

The IPython.kernel package has been deprecated. You should import from ipykernel or jupyter_client instead.

It's not specific to python-scapy. I reproduced it with ipython

It fails because of a specific Kali package: python-rfidiot.
If you remove this package, the command works.

Reducing severity and unassigning myself because the problem is not serious enough for us to spend more time on this issue. We brought it to the attention of the upstream developers and hopefully it will be fixed one day.

Due to the age of the OS (Kali Moto [v1], Kali Safi [v2], Kali Rolling <= 2018.4), these legacy versions are no longer supported.
We will be closing this ticket due to inactivity.

Please could you see if you are able to replicate this issue with the latest version of Kali Linux - https://www.kali.org/downloads/)?

If you are still facing the same problem, feel free to re-open the ticket. If you choose to do this, could you provide more information to the issue you are facing, and also give information about your setup?
