Mountain/Touring bike - need advice

Hi all,I am looking for a mtb with the following features, with a budget of 1500 - 2000 euros maximum (preferably 1500):

1) shimano xt/deore or sram gearbox in 3x9 / 10 version or in single chainring 12-speed version
2) front suspension fork
3) no rear fork
4) eyeletes for mounting rear rack and fenders on the frame

I would like to use it for touring but some light hardtail sometimes happens and I prefer a mtb frame. I had seen the Genesis Longitude and Bombtrack Beyond + models, they are nice bikepacking steel mtbs, but unfortunately they have a rigid fork and I am not going to spend money to change it. I also like the completeness of the Cube Kathmandu SL, but the frame is for touring.

Would you suggest me any models?
Thanks for your help.
