I think I have just figured it out, only because of having to copy and paste configs over. My package lists are derived from my 3.x configs and at the top of the file is a line that starts with "# /usr/share/live/build/package-lists/". This must have been from when 3.x in development (when I first started using Live Build) and I have not removed it.
It seems Live Build 4.x doesn't recognise # as a comment, even though Live Build 3.x did, so it reads the file as is and expects a file path to actually lead to a file even though the line is commented out. In the morning I will remove that line, start a totally new build and see what happens. You may wonder why I haven't sent this with the configs etc inline as you suggested. This email was huge with all the configs and the build log. Well in excess of 5000 lines, I have been able to attach files before but have never had to attach anything so big. It may help if the list software allowed larger attachments.
