Hmm, apparently you are right. (I was under the impression, that the libcups2 package pulls all the needed cups packages, but I was wrong here.) So we will need to add cups to all the *-desktop tasks probably, to make this work again. (Rationale: the print server task has been removed from tasksel under the assumption, that cups is installed with all desktop environments anyway. However, this is not true as it seems, at least not now.) Holger -- Holger Wansing <hwans...@mailbox.org> PGP-Fingerprint: 496A C6E8 1442 4B34 8508 3529 59F1 87CA 156E B076
