I'm using framework3 on my backtrack 5 32 gnome. maybe this method can help you.

Donwload this package:
https://dev.metasploit.com/redmine/p.../raw/msfupdate

execute, then type msfupdate from terminal. this is work for me.

This is what I did in Gnome 64b:
- did a fresh BT5 install
- put framework3 package in blacklist, so it wont upgrade through apt-get (and thus delete itself)

echo "framework3 hold" | dpkg --set-selections

- apt-get update and upgrade
- use update script sickness has made to upgrade Metasploit and other tools

Now I got a working Metasploit that is up-to-date as is BT5!

There is something wrong in current framework3 package, that totally deletes Metasploit in BT5, if you run "apt-get upgrade" after fresh install.

We are aware of the issue and are working to get it fixed. In the mean time please be patient.
Once it is fixed you will know.
See also the bug tracker.
Redmine

@Archangel-Amael: The Redmine link seems empty, but the problem hasn't been fixed (for BT5-x86 KDE atleast not).
What I've done:
Install BT5 KDE x86 from CD to HD (entire disk) using Install Backtrack installer @ desktop.
reboot
Set the network by editting /etc/network/devices and /etc/resolv.conf
reboot
in CLI (not started X yet) did a 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get upgrade'.
Nothing weird in update, upgrade however noticed that 4 packages would not get upgraded: backtrack-utils framework3 set tcpreplay
rebooted after all updates went proper and msfconsole worked normally.

apt-get distupgrade does update the 4 packages that where earlier ignored and fails on framework3, see screenshot below (is VM so and no X so can't copy/paste the text... sorry)

I've tried this process 3 times (complete with reinstall) so I think the bug is still active. If I can do anything or give more data let me know.
Thanks!

<edit> I noticed the image is crap quality after the resize by the forum, give me a pm if you want it, I'll put it online somewhere or email it.

What I get is ./framework.run missing..
chmod: cannot access `framework-64.run': No such file or directory

/var/lib/dpkg/info/framework.postinst: line 11: ./framework-64.run: No such file or directory
