I just got a report on Kali that w3af no longer works:
https://bugs.kali.org/view.php?id=3323

The stacktrace ends with this:
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/nltk/tokenize/api.py", line 14, in
<module>
    from nltk.six import add_metaclass
ImportError: No module named six

The Debian patch use-six-package.diff is thus incomplete and should be updated
to also correct the import in nltk/tokenize/api.py.

Thank you for a quick fix (with urgency=high please so that it gets fixed in
testing quickly, thank you).
