Bug#611951: Default GNOME desktop installation has both xsane *and* simple-scan



Package: tasksel
Version: 2.88
Severity: normal

Hi,

I did a default GNOME desktop installation using the RC2 net installer.

The resulting GNOME desktop had bot xsane and simple-scan installed.

xsane is pulled in via tasksel, simple-scan is pulled in through the
meta packages gnome and gnome-office:

# aptitude why simple-scan
i   gnome        Recommends gnome-office (= 1:2.30+7)
i A gnome-office Depends    simple-scan


According to Joss, meta-gnome2 is correct in this case and only
simple-scan should be installed.
