As far as I can tell, it's only trying to remove the "tasksel" task of task-x-window-system-core You will see that it is upgrading some of the actualy packages (I see xfree86-common and xserver-common) required by that "meta-package" or "task" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This message is intended only for the personal and confidential use of the designated recipient(s) named above.
