Hm. Sorry, I don't get this issue.

[Comment 2 Daniel Webert 2004-12-03 20:19:46 UTC]

the problem seems to be related to a parallel install of app-arch/(tar-1.14.90-r1) and app-arch/(star-1.5_alpha46) ... kicking 'app-arch/star' of the disk the nessus-update-plugins works fine ...

I've added nessus-*-2.3.0 now please let me know if this fixes your problem.

If not I'll get around to this. Just got lots of other netmon bugs todo
