bettercap supports GNU/Linux, BSD, Android, Apple macOS and the Microsoft Windows operating systems - depending if you want to install the latest stable release or the bleeding edge from the GitHub repository, you have several choices.
Precompiled Binaries
For every new release, we distribute bettercap’s precompiled binaries. In order to be able to use them, you’ll need the following dependencies on your system:
Hi, Below is easy tut about how to install last Ettercap on Kali. First install all Dependency: apt-get install python-gtk2-dev libnet1-dev cmake flex libpcap0.8-dev libncurses5-dev now download ettercap with git.
- libpcap
- libusb-1.0-0 (required by the HID module)
- libnetfilter-queue (on Linux only, required by the packet.proxy module)
- Sudo apt-get install openssl. Bettercap might not work out of the box and you might need to reinstall by performing the following: apt-get install ruby-dev. Gem uninstall eventmachine. Gem install eventmachine. Note: If you are facing issues with the stable release of Bettercap, you can also install the development release using the following.
- Ettercap’s developers have released an updated version (0.8.3) that fixes prior bugs and gives the user a redesigned GUI. In my prior tutorial, I went over how to perform ARP cache poisoning (aka spoofing — we will use the terms interchangeably) against Windows 7 utilizing Ettercap.

Using Docker
How To Use Ettercap
BetterCAP is containerized using Alpine Linux - a security-oriented, lightweight Linux distribution based on musl libc and busybox. The resulting Docker image is relatively small and easy to manage the dependencies. Since it is using a multi-stage build, a Docker version greater than 17.05 is required.
To pull latest stable version of the image:

There’s a golang bug in termux about some hardcoded path, the fix is ugly but it works:
Linux Deploy Method Debian based (like Ubuntu)
Install Linux Deploy, JuiceSSH, in Linux Deploy install kalilinux_arm (u need the piggy helper and enable the SSH) and type:
You can now proceed with the compilation:
Once the build process is concluded, the binary will be located in go/bin/bettercap.
Linux Deploy Method Fedora based (like Redhat, Centos)
The latest version of Kali Linux comes with the most current version of Ettercap. But some people are gluttons for punishment and still like to compile stuff themselves so see below.
