Re: Are follow-up steps for Lomiri desktop required?

Sorry if that wasn't clear: that's not the installer in text mode (which
would present the same choices as the graphical one), that's tasksel run
manually after logging into the installed system. Basically covering the
second part of one of your first replies:

    Thanks for the loud thinking. How can D-I be tweaked to only show
    the lomiri desktop task, but not the tablet task. (I don't know the
    internal wiring between tasksel and D-I).                                                   

    → new-tasksel-during.png (tasksel started by pkgsel, in d-i)
                                                                                
    It would be nice to leave the lomiri tablet task in the tasksel
    package while omitting it from D-I. Is that possible?

    → new-tasksel-after.png (tasksel started manually, outside d-i)

If you prefer omitting it from tasksel entirely, requiring prospective
users to `apt-get install` the task, that's entirely possible… that's
just not what I was proposing, and not was I understood you were asking
for. :)

Thanks to both teams for confirming!

The work will still be there for sid and forky in any case, so nothing
would be lost. :)
