Hi,
I did some test by installing 2 identical virtualbox instances (EFI
turned on) with the same netinst image <debian-11.1.0-amd64-netinst.iso>.
I typically use XFCE, so I wanted to test if leaving "Debian desktop
environment" marked would affect or not my XFCE installation.
It does.
a)
| [ ] Debian desktop environment
| [*] XFCE
b)
| [*] Debian desktop environment
| [*] XFCE
Using (b), I end up with 12 more installed packages. I checked that
there weren't any available upgrades after installing both (apt-get
update && apt-get upgrade showed 0).
The offending list is:
hv3
libsqlite3-tcl
libtcl8.6
libtk-img
libtk8.6
tcl
tcl-tls
tcl8.6
tcllib
tk
tk-html3
tk8.6
Maybe there's a bug somewhere in tasksel?
I did some tests running tasksel again after the installation, and were
intriguing, but I'll hold the deeper tests for after this is inspected.
Cheers,
Alex
