When I tried to emerge nessus for the first time, the config section of the emerge failed for it. libnasl was installed fine, but after nessus-core fails complaining: *** libnasl is not installed ! You need to install it before you compile nessus-core. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge nessus Actual Results: configure: error: *** libnasl is not installed ! You need to install it before you compile nessus-core.
