Maybe this will help to someone who have a plan to install Plone on Kali Linux.

In documentation you will see this line for libraries installations of Ubuntu, Fedora and CentOS.

This line for example is is for Ubuntu installation:

$ sudo apt-get install python-setuptools python-dev build-essential libssl-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev libbz2-dev libjpeg62-dev

But, this python library won't be installed on Kali Linux.

So here you can find installations for libraries .

Use this below for installation

This one will works on your Kali Linux (rolling)
Use apt-get install. The matching package names are:

  1. build-essential
  2. libssl-dev
  3. libz-dev
  4. libjpeg-dev
  5. libreadline-dev
  6. libxml2-dev
  7. libxslt-dev
  8. python-dev

So, this line should be looks like this:

$ sudo apt install python-setuptools build-essential libssl-dev libz-dev libjpeg-dev libreadline-dev libxml2-dev libxslt-dev python-dev

After this, normally you can install Plone with ./install.sh

Enjoy in Kali Plone :wink:
