aj reminded me that there was a reason we were trying to avoid using
meta/task packages -- at least big ones that have the potential to go
boom easily, and the above is why. On the other hand I don't want to
have to track what is in the kde package by hand. So I have implemented
something in tasksel that will automatically explode the task package
into its dependancies and list all of those. Tasksel need only be
rebuilt when the deps change.
