Bug#593105: tasksel: Please add a "Smartphone" task



Control: tag -1 + wontfix

Hi,

Sorry for replying to your bug a decade after you opened it.

Considering that Debian-powered smartphone are currently a very-niche thing,
that support is (AFAIK) currently very poor, and that it's not the role of the
d-i team to make Debian-on-Smartphones happen, I'm tagging this as wontfix.

Feel free to reply to the bug once there's a clear path to support installation
on smartphones and provide a sensible UX.


Best,

  nicoo
