Summary0009847: kali-live build suddenly fails due to missing dependencies
Description

Dear maintainers,

as you know, I am building kali-live daily. Since yesterday everything worked fine, but today the build fails due to several missing dependencies.
It looks for me, that this might happen through an update on your servers which corrupted the dependency database.

On a already native installed kali, this might not be apperent, as most packages are already installed, but it appears at livebuilding.

I attached the build.log, so you can better see, what I mean.

It would be nice, if you could you recheck.

Thank you very much for your help!

Best regards

Hans

Of course, there are not the dependencies missing, it does just not find the packages, although they seem to b eexistent.

As the live-build process is downloading aslo from mirrors, please be so kind and check, if the sync to the mirrors were working correctly, too.
In the past I already got the same issue, which was caused by a bad sync of the repos. Just an idea...

after looking at the build.log, it appears it's related to this issue https://bugs.kali.org/view.php?id=9853. openssh-client conflicts with openssh-client-gssapi

Might be, but if you take a closer look, you see, that a lot of packages are also involved and lots of packages can not be found.
I will try to find a workaround for the openssh-ciient problem, however, I believe(!), this is not the only cause for the issue.
After testing, I will be back again.
