Hello, 

today I noticed the same thing. My friend freezed on it too. I was little bit 
surprised, when nessus worked for me even I saw this error output. The only 
difference between my instalation and his was, that  I was installing Nessus 
to a specific directory, (not /usr/local/), I had everything like "user" or 
"cert" already created and he made totally new install.  Plus installation 
script finished installing plugins and the above error appeared after and my 
friend saw it just a second after compiling phase. 

I hadn't noticed a similar problem with SuSE 9.1 or older, just now with 9.2. 
I will try to install Nessus in debug mode to see why my instalation wasn't 
smooth but works anyway and yours not.
