/root/ctf-tools/bin/ctf-tools-pip: line 33: virtualenv: command not found

I'm assuming the error he's talking about is similar to this @zardus

(EDIT - Fix for above was simple on Kali - just run
./manage-tools -s setup
)
On Kali 2016.1 Rolling edition.
Linux kali 4.6.0-kali1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.6.4-1kali1 (2016-07-21) x86_64 GNU/Linux

If he's referring to the pip then

According to that blog updating pip solves the issue (maybe he's running an older version of Kali or something got corrupted - Kali starts playing up when you start messing around with it such as installing different versions on tools on one system).

pip install --upgrade distribute

In my case - I had to edit the ctf-tools-pip script and edit line 33 to -

virtualenv -p "$PY_INTERPRETER" "$VE_DIR"

removing --system-site-packages since Kali seems to not play nice with it.
Will play around a bit to make sure nothing breaks because of it.

^^Obviously above allowed successful manage-tools setup but since site packages aren't shared everything else failed.

EDIT - for Kali Python library isn't stored at /lib/python2.7/
its at /usr/local/lib/python2.7/

The error is caused because of /lib/python2.7/site-packages not existing.

Most tools still work fine - some packages in the kali repo just fail since they look for /lib/python2.7/site-packages so some tools like angr won't install.

But Kali is a pentesting distro anyways and is designed to work with hundreds of tools at hence why the default stuff isn't where it should be.

error occurred, but I can running manage-toolscommand.
So this issue is roughly solved.

thanks.

Could you post your system details (i.e., distro version and so forth) so we can try to track down the error?
