Summary0008917: install-nethunter-termux wasn't updated since 202402 and no longer works.
Description

I found an issue when installing kali nethunter. The install-nethunter-termux script is looking for a file named kalifs... but that naming convention isn't used in nethunter-images/current/rootfs/ Is there a fix for this?
It is looking for https://kali.download/nethunter-images/current/rootfs/kalifs-arm64-full.tar.gx However the file the script should be looking for is https://kali.download/nethunter-images/current/rootfs/kali-nethunter-rootfs-full-arm64.tar.xz

The document is for the 202402 version of nethunter and when it was merged, this file wasn't updated.
On line 107, if you change this
IMAGE_NAME=kalifs-${SYS_ARCH}-${wimg}.tar.xz
to this
IMAGE_NAME=kali-nethunter-rootfs-${wimg}-${SYS_ARCH}.tar.xz
It will get past that bug.

More than simply simply changing the file is required. A new sha file needs to be created for the install file. Normally .sha files are created as part of the compile process, normally in the packaging stage. I haven't downloaded the code to figure out how the build system works though. I can probably do that in a a few days.

Should now be fixed up, ready for 2024.4
