If this "selection" of packages is what Ubuntu is calling Server now, what should we use instead for a BASE server install? As fuqqer-r pointed out. SSH isn't installed by default, WTF is LDX, git, iscsi, account-services, and who knows whatelse being installed by default for?
Given 16.04 is already released, that means at BEST, we have to put up with this behavior for 2 years if we stick with Ubuntu Server. Seriously... who thought this was a good idea? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-meta in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1563026 Title: LXC/LXD installed by default on Ubuntu server Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Opinion Bug description: When performing a new installation of Ubuntu server 16.04 Beta 2, LXC and LXD are included in the default packages even when "Virtual Server" is not selected as an installation task. This brings in all of the required dependencies as well, obviously, which seems like it is not the best default behavior to have. When installing from a non-UEFI boot, the user may select "minimal install" from the "F4" menu. This menu is not available from the UEFI grub environment, making it apparently impossible to select an installation that does not include the LXC and LXD suite by default.
