can you tell if the same error persist if you do a

apt-get update ruby-typhoeus ruby-ethon

after this update it works for me just fine on kali linux.
my typhoeus version after upgrade is 0.6.3-1kali0 and ethon is 0.5.1201Kali0

looks like kali maintainer need to change package dependency to specify these two also.

You have broken your wpscan installation in kali by installing it manually or something similar. Kali Linux does not have /usr/bin/wpscan.rb
