So this implies one of these things, or perhaps a combination:
- livecd-rootfs isn’t building the squashfs for the minimal install correctly
- subiquity, the installer, is not honoring the selection in
ubuntu-desktop-bootstrap (the frontend you interact with)
- ubuntu-desktop-bootstrap isn’t passing the correct information on to
subiquity to trigger it to only install the minimum.
- There’s an error in the seed
- There’s a bug in germinate: the tool that creates a list of every package
that needs to be included in the .iso image, causing the minimal install to be
identical to the full install.
Hence, added those packages to the report.
