Yea, I know its the edgy kid distro, just trying some stuff with it on live USB. I’m not doing this on my Debian install to save time
I’ve been trying to use wifite to pentest my home network but I’m running into an issue. I noticed my iso does not have the packages hcxtools.
Tried installing from terminal but didn’t work and the command from Kali documentation did not work
The error so the following
E: Unable to locate package hcxtools
The command leading to it was
Sudo apt install hcxtools.
What am I doing wrong?
Did you try apt update and apt search? Is it in the repositories you’re searching? Do you need to add a repository and/or build it from GitHub?
The reason Kali is a meme is because it’s intended for professionals but often used by newbies, and you’re asking a rather basic question about package management.
Will run apt update, just didn’t think to was needed cos it was a new iso.
I’m not very technical. Not good with terminals
You’re running a live image, so the list of packages in the external repositories may be blank depending on how Kali does its defaults. Having apt fetch a package list is a very easy first troubleshooting step.
