setup.sh fails on fresh kali install due to lsb-core package missing on OS #75

Hi, I attempted to run setup.sh today on a kali install I did a few days ago, but it failed due to lsb-core package not existing in the package sources.

I noticed that lsb-core is deprecated, and seems to be removed from the repositories. I'll test whether it's actually required or not...

Hi ddorando,

Is is possible to install without lsb-core, iam running kali and for some reason my setup.sh stops with and error

Package lsb-core is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source

E: Package 'lsb-core' has no installation candidate any idea how i can fix it ? I have tried this work around but still not able to install-: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71191499/lsb-release-has-no-installation-candidate-while-trying-to-install-on-ubuntu-20-0

Heya, it is possible to install without lsb-core, however I couldn't get other deps to compile. Just remove lsb-core from https://github.com/attify/firmware-analysis-toolkit/blob/master/setup.sh#L5.

Same problem for me.I use parrot OS. Seems like there are no LSB modules.Please fix this..

So, sorry for the wait. lsb-core or the lsb-* dependencies seem to be not used at all. I'll just create a PR that removes it. Turns out binwalk uses the lsb_release tool for determining the distro itself and distro version. This PR mentioned just checks whether we still need to download lsb-core or not.
