When the download link is dead just report as outdated, it's not an error it's just a new version is available.

The current PKGBUILD is not complete. you need to extract and move the contents of the plugins-core.tar.gz archive in nessus-6.3.4-1-x86_64.pkg/opt/nessus/var/nessus/ and move the contents to /opt/nessus/var/nessus/tools/ Else nessus will produce this error: # /opt/nessus/sbin/nessuscli mkcert Error: Can not find /opt/nessus/var/nessus/tools/tool_dispatch.ntool. Please check that Nessus is installed properly.

Adopted. This may need fixing (I am having issues with scheduled scans), working with support. Once I figure out what is wrong, I'll update.

@kyak: I updated the documentation on the wiki. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/OpenVAS

kyak commented on 2015-02-01 08:00 (UTC)

@thestinger, can you please help nessus users transition to openvas? I've installed the whole openvas group, but now sure where to go from there. Instructions in wiki are outdated (there are no openvas-adduser/OpenVAS-Client commands). There is no documentation on openvas web site. Where to go from here?

thestinger commented on 2015-02-01 07:05 (UTC)

I've orphaned this because I'm no longer interested in it. OpenVAS is pretty much on par with Nessus but it's FOSS + I maintain it in the official repositories now.

thestinger commented on 2014-12-17 19:31 (UTC)

@mzimmerman: I know, but I was waiting to see what they were planning on doing about 32-bit support. I'll just drop it from the package and someone else can maintain nessus5 if they care.

This PKGBUILD seems to work great for me. No real changes required to get to 6.x series https://gist.github.com/mzimmerman/1271623d2ced5a771ce5
