You might try installing tasksel. Here is the description: tasksel - Tool for selecting tasks for installation on Debian system This package provides 'tasksel', a simple interface for users who want to pick general tasks for installation on their Debian GNU/Linux system. This program is used during the installation process, but users can also use tasksel at any point.
