Package: debian-installer
Version: Jessie
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
I did a clean install using the netboot.tar.gz +pxe method, 
selecting the XFCE desktop environment.  But when the machine booted, 
it presented a Gnome desktop environment.  I expected to see XFCE.


XFCE is present, and I was able to modify /etc/lighdm.conf to make it 
be the default.  However, I expected it to be this way out of the box, 
and for gnome not to be installed at all.

I tested this with a recent netboot image, installing the testing release.

I chose xfce as desktop, and all worked fine, xfce was installed and started 
automatically.

Thus this has been fixed in the meantime...

So closing this bug.
