Are you sure that this is not a bug in the Debian Edu environment? As
far as I looked into, the test calles

/usr/share/debian-edu-config/tools/debian-edu-bless

and this script seems to be unable to handle alternatives.

IMO it would not be a good solution to just limit the packages to the
first alternative, since that would break the idea of alternatives.
