[Openvas-discuss] Feedback on amd64 Debian / Lenny packages

Hello,

I'm nearly done with OpenVAS <--> OSSIM integration and wanted to  
share my thoughts with you. Had to change a bunch of regexps and  
output formats among other things on the OSSIM side, but it's working  
right now.

Speed increase is great, I also like the new openvas-client very much.  
Congrats on the great work :-)

I had to make some changes to the packages for pfring enabled libpcap,  
since I'm not using the regular debian one.

Then there's a small bug in the openvas-server package; it doesn't  
create the /var/cache/openvas directory (fixed it here). On the other  
hand,  OpenVAS server startup takes ages, it might be interesting to  
add something like "loading plugin X out of Y. (Just a suggestion).

Once I've got a new release with integration 100% polished I'll send  
you another short notice.

Thanks for the support on this.

Greetings,

Dominique
