I have a question regarding tasksel and aptititude and how they deal with tasks. I have managed to create a couple of new task definitions, put them in /usr/share/tasksel/foo.desc and they show up fine in tasksel. However, trying to install a task spawns aptitude which apparently has no clue about anything but the default debian-tasks. Looking at aptitude sources it seems to have opening debian-tasks.desc hardcoded.
I know that Debian-Edu packages had de some trickling around with tasksel and I tried to take this over into cdd-dev package in CVS which is not yet enouth tested because I stopped working on cdd-dev since STO announced a major rewrite. You might either have a look into the Debian-Edu stuff or CDD stuff in SVN. The idea is to use a task-lister and point tasksel to this. Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
