The problem is that live-helper expands *all* package lists in
config/chroot_local-packageslists, regardless of whether they are specified
in the LH_PACKAGES_LISTS variable or not.
This why when you did:

.. it worked, as the "cryptonas-devel" list wasn't around to be expanded.
Now, this may still be a bug - to be able to build images with slightly
different contents like this is quite a compelling use-case, and the
LH_PACKAGES_LISTS variable is hardly intuitive with the current behaviour.
(Daniel, any objections to removing helpers/lh_chroot_local-packageslists?
The Expand_packagelist code sources the local packageslist drectory already.)
