The bug has been cloned, however the new one is also closed already.
So reopening.
Additionally, I tested with tasksel 3.61 from testing, if this bug is still
reproducible, and found that it is not!
Everything worked fine there:
I called "tasksel --new-install", got the selection menu, chose to additionally
install ssh-server, and that worked fine.
So updating the list of not-affected versions.
Let's see what happens with future versions ...
(FTR: since the point of this bugreport may be overseen in the bug log:
please find the description of the problem in
