openvas-manager 6.0.8-0kali1 fails tu start (undefined symbol)

[tatooin]

Hello all,

I just upgraded to the latest stable release of kali rolling
openvas-manager package (6.0.8-0kali1)

Now the daemon fails to run immediately, I cannot even get access to the
--help menu.

root@kali-gis-eur:~# /usr/sbin/openvasmd --help
/usr/sbin/openvasmd: symbol lookup error: /usr/sbin/openvasmd: undefined
symbol: osp_param_name

Prior to the update, everything was working fine.

Any suggestions appart from downgrading to the previous stable version ?

Thanks !

I face the same problem. After the upgrade the openvas stopped working with the same error message.
Did you resolve the problem?
