Just did a fresh install of Kali rolling 2017.
I was able to update after installing.
Able to run:
apt-get update

"apt install openvas"

does not work

"apt-cache search openvas"
"apt-cache search open"

do not return any results for openvas

I am doing something wrong or is OpenVAS not in the Kali Repo?

Say's all you have to do is


apt-get update

apt install openvas

Are you using 2017.1, It worked for me yesterday.

If your not running 2017.1 I would download the new version if you don't want to do:

apt -y dist-upgrade
