Install ALL KALI LINUX TOOLS in ubuntu!

UPDATE: I wrote this a long time ago, the repo has been archived since then, please dont follow this blog if you're unaware of what you do

Kali Linux is made for ethical hacking and penetration testing which comes with almost 600 tools pre installed !

As some of you might already know, Katoolin is a Python script to install Kali Linux tools in Ubuntu, Debian and other DEB-based systems.

If you're a security researcher or enthusiast, Katoolin allows you to install any Kali Linux tools of your choice on top of your Ubuntu system in couple minutes.

It seems that Katoolin is not being updated regularly (the last commit was April, 2019) and it doesn't work in recent Ubuntu versions. The Caveats started adding up due to lack of maintenance.

Fortunately, someone has taken up the torch and is keeping a very stable branch of katoolin. Say hello to Katoolin3, a fork of Katoolin, that helps you to get your favorite Kali Linux tools on Debian, Ubuntu and its derivatives like Linux Mint. Katoolin3 is completely free and open source program.

Now let's get working!
Use the following commands :

sudo add-apt-repository universe
git clone https://github.com/s-h-3-l-l/katoolin3
cd katoolin3
chmod +x ./install.sh
./install.sh
sudo katoolin3

Next it will show tool groups to choose
You can choose what you need and
voila! Done

The git repo is forked and is a few revisions behind.
If you open the install.sh and replace pool.sks-keyservers.net with keyserver.ubuntu.com it will work.

You need to use sudo ./install.sh and it should work
