Package: tasksel Version: 2.53 Severity: normal Selecting 'Desktop environment' (in Etch Testing) causes tasksel to hang. (There is a flashing cursor at the bottom left-hand corner of the console.) If 'Desktop environment' is selected from within the Etch beta-3 Debian-installer, the installation fails. I have replicated the problem on a Thinkpad T20 laptop and on the PC detailed below using qemu.
