Both postings contained the same 1575 package names. So we are nothing
closer to what is causing the 8 more packages install. The only difference
seems to be install through ethernet versus through wifi.
Based upon the timestamp of the email is the last install an ethernet
install. Please do
dpkg -l | sudo tee /var/log/installer/dpkg-l
sudo tar cz /var/log/installer > ethernet.tgz
# save the ethernet.tgz
Then a wifi install plus
dpkg -l | sudo tee /var/log/installer/dpkg-l
sudo tar cz /var/log/installer > wifi.tgz
# mail wifi.tgz
Next is sharing the .tgz with us, this mailinglist.
Please be warned that the mailinglist software has a size limit on each
posting. So some creativity might be needed.
