Description:

Openvas packages were recently added to the community repository, but it appears that a package containing the user administration commands for openvas was left out. The missing commands include openvasad, openvas-adduser and openvas-rmuser. It seems like a single package, perhaps titled openvas-admin, containing these commands is simply missing. Without these commands it is not clear how a user account could be created to access the openvas scanner.


The only available openvas packages are listed below:

community/greenbone-security-assistant 5.0.3-1
community/openvas-cli 1.3.0-3
community/openvas-libraries 7.0.4-1
community/openvas-manager 5.0.4-1
community/openvas-scanner 4.0.3-1

None of these packages contain the user management commands.
This task depends upon
