I've just looked into possibly adding the dependency as you suggested,
but here's an excerpt of tasksel's debian/control file:
| Package: task-italian
| Architecture: all
| Description: Italian environment
| This task installs packages and documentation in Italian
| to help Italian speaking people use Debian.
| Depends: ${misc:Depends},
| manpages-it
| Recommends:
| aspell-it,
| debian-reference-it,
| doc-linux-it,
| doc-linux-it-text,
| fortunes-it,
| iitalian,
| maint-guide-it,
| witalian
|
| Package: task-italian-desktop
| Architecture: all
| Description: Italian desktop
| This task localises the desktop in Italian.
| Depends: ${misc:Depends},
| Recommends:
| libreoffice-help-it,
| libreoffice-l10n-it,
| mythes-it,
| iceweasel-l10n-it,
| myspell-it
So I guess you want to install task-italian-desktop to get all
desktop-related translations? Which would make this bug report a
non-bug. :)
Mraw,
KiBi.
