Just to be sure : are you using livecd-tools-21.4-2.el7.x86_64 (and
corresponding python-imgcreate) packages that are on
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/extras/x86_64/Packages/ and so on a
CentOS 7 node to build your livecd ?

Also, that ks file isn't updated as only LiveGnome/LiveKDE are
maintained so maybe compare with the other ks files located on
https://git.centos.org/tree/sig-core!livemedia.git/4c99f5ea4fa3399f533cd2237badea65d45d6765/kickstarts
(for example that old ks still points to outdated and non existing
repositories)
