Kinetic is the Ubuntu 22.10 release? Elementary OS is always based on the LTS. Maybe try switching to jammy?

Also see list at:

This issue would be "won't fix" since we don't enable builds for Ubuntu 22.10 now and plus, it is not supported to add our daily PPAs manually. If you want to use the latest developing version of elementary OS, you may want to use the Early Access

---

FYI, I guess we build daily recipes against the following Ubuntu versions:

1. the LTS version that our latest stable OS built on (e.g. Jammy at the moment which Horus is built on)
2. the latest developing version so that we can quickly detect build errors before the next LTS release (e.g. Mantic at the moment)

so we might build daily recipes against Kinetic when it had been the latest developing version of Ubuntu, but we would no longer do that since now Mantic is the current latest developing version.
