Maintainer probably has other priorities or has lost interest.  This could
indicate that there is now something better (for the maintainer's use
case),
have a look at https://alternativeto.net/software/openvas/ and
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.

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.
