Summary0004467: Metasploit not starting
Description

When I try to start MSF (from menu or msfconsole), I get multiple error:

/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/rbnacl/libsodium.rb:5:in remove_const': constant RbNaCl::Libsodium::VERSION not defined (NameError) from /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/rbnacl/libsodium.rb:5:in<module:Libsodium>'

Temporary fix:

Comment all lines in /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/rbnacl/libsodium.rb

Save it and It should work after that.

A temporary fix is to remove the package ruby-rbnacl
The package version in Kali is 5.0.0: it's not compatible with the required version for metasploit (<< 5.0.0).
I don't know why it uses the installed gem instead of the gem included in metasploit.

Temporary fix implemented in metasploit version 4.16.30-0kali2
