Bug#357188: Package: installation-reports



Quoting Rick Thomas (rbthomas55@pobox.com):

(minimal X task)

Well, check the tasksel bug reports. I wonder whether there is already
such a suggestion or not (I bet there is one....I just can't check
right now).

Anyway, "aptitude install x-window-system" or something similar should
do the trick.

The problem, as often in tasksel, is getting the picture of "what is
actually commonly accepted to be included in a minimal X system task",
ie making choices. This is something that Debian is not always very
good at (making decisions...).
