I'm afraid so for now, yes. It could come back in a future release, but we'll need help to make it happen. The live images we're building are based on the live-task-* metapackages. We need somebody to work out what's wanted for a "standard" or "console" image, put together a matching live-task-foo metapackage and commit to maintaining it... -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. st...@einval.com "This dress doesn't reverse." -- Alden Spiess
