Hi This is some sort of tasksel todo.
Remove tasksel-data =================== tasksel-data was introduced to help derivates change it. However most of the information is now installed as packages and more should come. Also tasksel and tasksel-data currently have a recursive dependency. So this is not gonna work without changes to tasksel anyway. My proposal is to move all missing information to the packages. The task packages should be moved to a different source package, so tasksel only provides the scripts and the tasks can be easily replaced without medling with tasksel themself. Task dependencies ================= Tasks currently don't depend on each other. For example I can install task-german-desktop without task-desktop. tasksel have some internal logic to resolve this, but I think this should be also enforced on the package level. Base localization task ====================== util-linux-locales is currently included in some languages but not in others. Such packages should move into it's own base task. Different dictionaries ====================== Currently we may install four different dictionaries: - hunspell - aspell - w* - i* Sometimes hunspell is included in the desktop task, sometimes in the base local task. Fonts ===== hungarian-desktop for example _depends_ on a large amount of fonts. None of them hungarian specific.
