Dear Sean! It seems you do not understand bug description. I install `xubuntu-desktop` task-package from mini.iso on 18.04 LTS with `sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop`.
What is the difference with "a base install of Xubuntu"? What is wrong is this method? Users should be able to install desktop task as they want. Clean installation is not an option for some (or most do not really sure) users. I attach the list of installed packages. I do not have other desktops installed. You should check this again. It may be dependency problem or something similar. Checked again today - installed xubuntu-desktop from mini.iso. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to indicator-datetime in Ubuntu.
