Erm... It turns out that the failure is not transient...

The build error is caused by a newer version of busybox (1.1.37.0-5), 
which is already fixed in sid (1.1.37.0-6), but it is on a delayed trip 
to trixie, with a long migration time of 20 days, according to 
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/busybox

I'm currently testing a feature on live-build to add support for local 
udeb files (which allows for a workaround until the busybox package has 
migrated)

The weekly live images for trixie, which use the files from trixie 
(instead of unstable as the netinst images do) will therefore FTBFS 
until either the workaround is in place or (preferably) the busybox 
package has migrated to trixie.

With kind regards,
Roland Clobus
