FWIW, we're using this workaround for Debian Edu now: https://anonscm.debian.org/git/debian-edu/debian-edu-install.git/commit/?id=31db02a3be63725b903797382ee8861ec8f7daa2 -- cheers, Holger signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Bug#851555: Blends install options removed from tasksel menu
Package: tasksel Version: 3.39 Severity: serious Control: block -1 by 846002 Since revision 3.39, tasksel limits the tasks to a predefined list in the installer, which ignores the blends task selection currently under CTTE discussion in #846002. The result of the discussion is still open, and this bug is created to mark tasksel as a potential target of the CTTE decision. BTW, I usually would have expected that all parties keep the status quo during the discussion until a decision is made; trying to undermine the discussion result is IMO improper and unfriendly behaviour. The change (ba4e0289) also makes it more difficult for others to add items to the installer tasksel menu for customized builds without a technical reason. And any CTTE decision will anyway make the patch obsolete. Best regards Ole
