With respect to pkgsel, I thought our ultimate idea (not really for
slink) was to provide actual empty 'metapackages', which are just
normal packages with a whole slew of dependancies and a little
README/Changelog/etc in /usr/doc/<metapkgname> .

Is this the plan?

I'll try to be sure and document how to exploit the existing pkgsel
stuff.  Anyone volunteering text snippets for the Installation Manual
would be appreciated.
