crash with plugins

[LimCore]

Each time nessus crash after I
1) download all plugins feed (update plugins after registering at nessus.org/register/) on 2008-03-06 (first try)
2) then when I start the scan, it crashes (was working fine before I downlaoded & enabled all plugins)

ii nessus 2.2.9-2

ubuntu 7.10 amd64

[y0ld (yold)]

I can confirm this bug

ubuntu 7.10 amd64, nessus 2.2.9-2

segfault core dumped after get plugins and start scan

[HillClimber (launchpad-pub)]

Confirming here. Segment fault and core dump on "start scan". Nessus is unusable. Amd64 Gutsy.

nessus (Nessus) 2.2.9 for Linux

Linux xxx 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Tue Feb 12 02:46:46 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux

[y0ld (yold-paisiblement)]

resolved:

apt-get remove --purge nessus && apt-get install nessusclient

nessus is an obsolete client.

[HillClimber (launchpad-pub)]

This is *not* resolved. nessusclient is not available in the repo's:
