>Description:

As the maintainer of the security/nessus-*-devel ports I would like to remove
them from the tree as "Tenable Network Security" the company behind nessus
has changed their policy. The new nessus-3.x is only delivered as binary and
a development version of nessus is no longer available in sources.

However the nessus 2.2.x is still maintained (see a diffeent PR updating
the nessus ports to 2.2.7).

The affected ports to be removed are:

	security/nessus-libraries-devel
	security/nessus-libnasl-devel
	security/nessus-devel
	security/nessus-plugins-devel
