Jeff,

    w3af did not specify the version for pdfminer pip dependency, so
when running "pip install pdfminer" you downloaded the latest
available. Until one week ago, the latest available was fine (working
with w3af) but now they released a new version of that third party
library which changed the API, thus generating that bug you see. This
is fixed on your side by installing the old pdfminer version:

    pip install pdfminer==20110515 --upgrade

    And from w3af's side by asking for specific versions (working on it)
