root@kali:~#Currently Kali has been re-planning system metadata package, create a new metadata package and rename the existing packages are also given a new naming convention. To the system itself, for example, in the previous version, kali-linux-full is the default metadata package, now renamed to kali-linux-large and redirect, now introduces a new called kali-linux-default of the default metadata package, it can be used as a compact version of kali-linux-large tools.
The next will be a specific assessment tools which belong to which groups:
- Kali-linux-default: for penetration testers vital tool
- Penetration testing tools have a wider range of non-standard / common situations: Kali-linux-large
