Subject: tasksel: tasksel -riq doesn't install custom task
To: submit@bugs.debian.org

Package: tasksel
Version: 1.0-10
Severity: normal
During installation, tasksel is invoked with the "-riq" flag to let
the user select and install desired tasks. A custom task doesn't
install properly although it works correctly if installed via
apt-get/dselect/tasksel (without flags).
Here's some mails I send to "debian-boot" about this bug that
describe the problem:

NOTE: the equation #1 correspond to the task that installs corectly.

I'm closing this bug since it's been marked as unreproducible since 2001,
and tasksel has been rewritten in the meantime, as well as the task
system redesigned.
