Hi, I stumbled across a strange inconsistency: In nessus-libraries there is a include/includes.h that is installed to $prefix/include/nessus. This file inlucdes a nessus-devel.h which is not installed. Thus, using nessus-libraries would produce a compile error. Funny enough, this does not happen too often since many people install the devel stuff of nessus-core as well. There, another (different!) includes.h is installed on the previous includes.h of nessus-libraries and, luckily, nessus-devel.h is installed as well (and it is again very different from the nessus-devel.h in nessus-libraries). I found this problem while building nessus-plugins debian package without having nessus-devel installed (only libnessus-devel was installed). Actually, some compilation failed - so it was no configure that detected this. So, in a first instance, the flaw lies in multiple existance of files with the same name but different content. Currently I am lacking an idea in which way this should be resolved ...
