Later than I would like to, I would also like to announce the 
availability of Nessus 2.2.0 for Debian in your usual locations [1]. 
This release introduces some changes in the way it has been packaged 
(plugins are now located under /var/ instead of /usr/ to prevent host 
integrity monitoring tools to yell back at the administrator when 
update-nessus-plugins is run). Also, the initd file has seen some 
improvements.

George's Describe-nessus-plugins and Update-nessus-plugins provided 
have also been updated to their latest version.

Regards

Javier
