This could indicate that there is now something better (for the maintainer's use case), have a look at https://alternativeto.net/software/openvas/%C2%A0and%C2%A0 https://linuxsecurity.expert/tools/openvas/ https://linuxsecurity.expert/tools/openvas/alternatives/ . Openvas is sort of a jack of all trades, so there may be another tools that is better for your use case.

Didn't find that 1st link George mentioned, and reading it quickly didn't really get what to do. I'll look into it deeper probably tomorrow. Now doing the --releasever=30 gives me this initially: Errors during downloading metadata for repository 'updates-modular': - Downloading successful, but checksum doesn't match like 3 times. A second attempt seemed to work but is downgrading git, foomatic and a lot of other perl packages. Still downloading at this stage but wanted to say thank you and hopefully everything will be running tomorrow. Now should I file a bug for F31 or not?Have you checked bugzilla and the openvas site? If anyone other than you uses openvas there may already be a bug report with some indication of the underlying issues. If you decide you need openvas it would be useful to try either building it directly from source or building your own rpms so you can document the problems in your bug report. Depending on the nature of the problem you may find it better to file a bug report with the upstream developer. -- George N. White III
Dear George,
Following Jerry's post about it I did add a comment to the existing bug. I might also try to compile from source and see what it gives.
Thank you again for the support.
