Summary0007644: wpscan broken after upgrade from 26-03-2022
Description

After today's apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade wpscan is broken with the following error message (obviously a problem with dependencies):

Thanks for the report.

To fix this issue you can install ruby-webrick:
sudo apt install ruby-webrick

FTR: ruby-webrick was part of Ruby standard library before Ruby 3.x. It's now a separate gem. The package ruby-xmlrpc required the gem but it has not been updated to depends on it.
I will fix this dependency issue.

I have uploaded ruby-cms-scanner version 0.13.6-0kali6 to force the installation of ruby-webrick.

I have reported the issue to Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1008524
