NameError: global name 'KS_MODE_32' is not defined about metame

[AxDSan]

Followed everything straight from https://github.com/keystone-engine/keystone/blob/master/docs/COMPILE-NIX.md

and now I get #5

root@kali:~# metame -i /root/Desktop/untitled.exe -o /root/Desktop/untitled_.exe

Quite a bit later, I know, but I have been seeing the exact same error under multiple attempted installs under Kali and Ubuntu installations. I've installed from scratch, a couple times start to finish, installing metame last after radare2 and keystone.

Could this be related to OpenStack having a "keystone" module as well?

same NameError: name 'Ks' is not defined just pipinstalling keystone, after keystone-engine then the new ImportError: ERROR: fail to load the dynamic library., that is solved with this so, you have to compile and install also shared libraries...

question is, wtf dont they say this already in the INSTALL.md? lol

I think case is closed.

This looks like the same problem as #3. Can you check if your Keystone installation is correct?

[AxDSan]

I checked, last time I ran metame and installed everything I had some problems with Keystone indeed, however I paused metame installation and installed Keystone successfully and then went onto metame and restarted the installation and it installed properly, however the issue still appeared.

This is what shows up after trying to install keystone-engine:

root@kali:~# pip install keystone-engine
Requirement already satisfied: keystone-engine in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages

I will redo everything installing keystone from git and will report back.

[a0rtega]

Yes, that seems to be the problem. I commented it in #3 as well.

@live4java sorry did you find a solution by now?

[cryptid11]

edit, actually I do that on ubuntu and it turns out that for some obscure reasons the init file remain empty, and even following the stuff in previous message doesnt works, so to solve put:

# Keystone Python bindings, by Nguyen Anh Quynnh <[email protected]>
