Wow, I never saw someone who's using a version number for every
package. Any reason why you did this? In case of any minor package
updates, you have to change this file. 

    > Below is my fai.log:

WARNING: Uppercase character found in package name in line lsb-base=4.1+Debian11ubuntu6.2

IMO this is a minor bug in FAI. FAI does not expect an uppercase
letter in the version number.

WARNING: These unknown packages are removed from the installation list: collada-dom-dev=2.4.4.7-ubuntu1~trusty1 collada-dom2.4-dp-base=2.4.4.7-ubuntu1~trusty1 
Another minor bug in FAI. When install_packages tries to check if the
package name is correct this does not seem to work with =<version>

I strongly recommend to remove the version numbers from the
package_config file.


E: Version '1:9.9.5.dfsg-3ubuntu0.16' for 'bind9-host' was not found
E: Version '4.101-0ubuntu13.3' for 'bluez' was not found
E: Version '2.6.0+bzr6593-1ubuntu1.6' for 'bzr' was not found
E: Version '20170717~14.04.1' for 'ca-certificates' was not found

This errors are cause by forcing a version number.



E: Version '2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1.14' for 'grub-common' was not found
E: Version '2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1.14' for 'grub-pc' was not found
E: Version '2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1.14' for 'grub-pc-bin' was not found
E: Version '2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1.14' for 'grub2-common' was not found

That's why grub was not installed.

Didn't you read the log file yourself?
