Public bug reported:
Installing the package ubuntu-desktop on an Ubuntu Server installation
using:
sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends ubuntu-desktop
does not result in an usable minimal desktop. It is not possible to run any
applications, because the Applications lens is missing, and it's not possible
to log out since there is no session indicator. To fix this, these packages
should be added to Depends:
- unity-lens-applications
- indicator-session
The following packages are not required for desktop functionality, yet they are
in Depends:
- checkbox-qt
- eog
- gnome-calculator
- gnome-font-viewer
- gnome-screenshot
- gucharmap
- nautilus-sendto
- software-center
- update-notifier
