Bug#738602: debian-installer: Alternative desktop choices do not reflect change to XFCE as default



Package: debian-installer
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

   The recent switch to XFCE as the default desktop for Debian is not reflected in the Debian installer's Alternative desktop list. That is, GNOME is not an option anywhere, and XFCE remains in the list of "alternatives".

   There is also no indication of what the installer is actually going to install, leaving users with a rude realization when they boot into their fresh install.

   The desktop=gnome workaround functions as expected.
