Install Gns3 On Kali Linux - Khalid Katkout

I have written articles previously on How to install Gns3 on Kali Linux and Debian.
Today i will write an article

on how to install Gns3 1.3.9 as of this writing on Kali Linux 2.0, Debian 8 and Latest ubuntu.
This article will work on other new release of Gns3 and i will post an update when new release come out. Gns3
on Linux come with 7 components that we'll build one by one.
Dynamips 0.2.14
gns3 gui 1.3.9
gns3 server 1.3.9
initparser
iouyap 0.95
ubridge 0.9.0
vpcs 0.6.1
The procedure will be same for the three different distributions but for Kali Linux 2.0 you'll have to put correct
repo list.On your Kali sana 2.0,ensure you put this repositories to your sources.list
NOTE: This is for Kali Linux 2.0 only. Paste the following on your terminal.
cat << EOF > /etc/apt/sources.list

# Regular Repositories
