I see the tasksel way is pretty nice, but to be useful your sources e.g.
metapackages should already be in Debian/ Ubuntu right?
The tasksel control file is created according to the packages available
in the target distribution (in the same manner as the metapackages).
[Perhaps I'm missing the point of your question.]
Or is there a
easy way to fix this with a minimal install cd / netinstall or do you
have to make your custom iso then?
There is no need for an extra iso - just build for your target
distribution which can in principle point to a private Packages file of
a private distribution - that's why I assume that it should work for
Ubuntu and the result will be the set of packages in Ubuntu. So it
should work for any other Debian derivative.
