Subject: update plugins


Hi all, 
I just installed nessus from CVS on a fresh install of FreeBSD 4.6. 
hwbsd252# nessus -v 
nessus (Nessus) 1.2.6 for FreeBSD 
When compiling nessus-plugins (configure; make; make install) I received the
following error: 
Warning : the following plugins could not be built : 
bind_bof 
I then attempted to run nessus-update-plugings and I am receiving the
following error: 
Error $fetch_cmd or $gzip are not set - abort 
I checked what path nessus-update-plugings was looking for gzip and it is
/usr/bin/gzip, right where gzip is located: 
hwbsd252# which gzip 
/usr/bin/gzip 
What could be going wrong here?  Did I miss something in the install?  I
installed all the required components before installing nessus.
On a side note, is nessus compatible with gtk+2.0?  I had this installed
first and nessus would not find it because of a missing file (gtk-config).
Once I installed gtk1.2.8 nessus-core compiled without an issue because
gtk12-config was present.
TIA,
