            In case someone need an answer on this, I finally managed to install cleanly w3af by installing the lxml dependency myself throught the instructions that i've found on this link lxml installing instruction at the linux section.

            OpenVAS: OSPD scanner can't be used as scanner in new task
            Asked 2018-Oct-22 at 17:44

            After understanding how to add an ospd scanner, verify it etc ... I though I could finally use it but got an error through UI to add it to a task.

            In my case, I run OpenVAS 9 on a debian 9 and I'm trying to include a w3af scanner but I got the same issue with every OSP scanner I add.

            I solved this issue by creating a scan configuration for the ospd scanner (I though it didn't need one since it import them)

            I faced another issue concerning ospd-w3af configuration, I couldn't create one because it needs ospd 1.0.0 installed, I modified the dependencies few days ago and it doesn't work with ospd 1.2.0

            Now I'm facing the issue where the scans doesn't start properly. It stops at 1%

            It is a common misconception that placing a sequence of chars into a negated character class will result in matching a sequence of chars other than the specified sequence. In fact, [^(''')]* = [^)(']*.

            You need to use lookaheads here together with negated character classes:
