/usr/share/theharvester/theHarvester.py not executable on Kali by default?
Closed this issue · 5 comments
Deleted user commented
From a fresh Kali install using the 2017.01 media, cloning the repo into /opt/discover per the instructions, a number of checks fail because /usr/share/theharvester/theHarvester.py
is not executable by default.
I fixed this by adding the execute bit to /usr/share/theharvester/theHarvester.py
. There might be a better option.

There is a ticket upstream on the Kali bug tracker but they have not done anything about it yet as far as I am aware

Would it be worth calling the python binary with the script as a parameter rather than assuming that the script itself is +x? I can put together a PR for that.
