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?

    First, make sure your VM has access to the internet, for example with ping 8.8.8.8
    Then do sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list

    The file should include a line that is exactly this:
    deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
    (or it could have kali-last-snapshot in place of kali-rolling)
    If not, replace everything in the file with the line above and save the file with Ctrl+O, then close the editor with Ctrl+X
    Then run:

    sudo apt update   
sudo apt dist-upgrade   
sudo apt install hcxtools
