Possible Bug report

I am unsure if this is a bug or something else but was unable to find
anything pertaining to it in the bug archives.

I recently performed an update of nmap from within kali linux in order
to get the latest scripts since I was nearly 1000 scripts behind.

I updated from github source with no errors.

Upon finishing I issued the nmap --script-updatedb command and got the
following error:

Starting Nmap 7.40 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2017-05-08 16:31 PDT
NSE: Updating rule database.

QUITTING!

Everything else seems to be working, but I thought i would send this so
that you are alerted to the possible error in the DB at some point.
