from what i know the packages of Kali Linux are pulled from Debian so
you could also create an update request for the new packages
(http://www.openvas.org/install-source.html) at the Debian tracker:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=openvas-scanner
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=openvas-manager
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=openvas-libraries
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=greenbone-security-assistant

And if the packages got updated they should end up in Kali Linux as well.

Regards,
