Re: 8 more packages

My guess would be that installing over WiFi causes 8 packages to
be installed earlier than happens with a wired install.  I could imagine
that having e.g. wpasupplicant might be deemed a good idea.

If all 8 of those packages are also pulled in by the later task
selection, then the ones already installed will be missing from the
count for the WiFi install, but the end result would be the same.

I just had a brief look to see if I could see where this would actually
get done in the code, but failed to find it, so this is just a guess.

Cheers, Phil.
