I checked every package in tasksel's current gnome task to ensure it
was still being pulled in using the new meta-gnome2 and the new task...


# several packages recommend this, make sure it's available in case
# things that depend on it are not available
  gksu

I've left this in.


# May not get installed unless forced, if some other browser satisfies the
# dependency, so force it.
  epiphany-browser

This comment, and bug #370098 still seem to apply. g-d-e depends on:
epiphany-browser (>= 2.22.2) | gnome-www-browser,
iceweasel-gnome-support provides gnome-www-browser, so aptitude since
aptitude is installing iceweasel anyway during the tasksel run, it might
choose to skip epiphany. So I've re-added this to the task.


  gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg

AFAIK this is used by rhythmbox, and probably totem as well, and I don't
see any obvious dependencies pulling it in. (totem recommends it). So I
think it needs to stay in the task.


I didn't check in detail to see what additional packages you might have
added to the task as dependencies of gnome -- the point of merging is so
you can do that. But I did notice that you have included swfdec-mozilla.
Tasksel has a separate bug open about flash, #467324. I've been leaning
toward swfdec, but still feel that any decision between it and gnash is
fairly arbitrary, and am still not sure that shipping flash that is
known to still fail on my websites will be a net win for users. Also, if
swfdec-mozilla is included, it should be put right in the main desktop
task, so it will be available in iceweasel on kde and xfce too.

Current version of the task (from git) attached.

BTW, could you take a look at #400543?
