Bug#1120842: whatweb fails to run: cannot load such file -- /usr/bin/lib/messages (LoadError)

Show all headers | View raw

Package: whatweb
Version: 0.6.3-1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: sophie@kali.org
User: devel@kali.org
Usertags: origin-kali

When you try to run whatweb with any option, it fails with

/usr/bin/whatweb:257:in `require_relative': cannot load such file -- /usr/bin/lib/messages (LoadError)
	from /usr/bin/whatweb:257:in `<main>'


This bug has first been reported in Kali [1] but I reproduce it on Debian.
