Re: tasksel is marked for autoremoval from testing
Hi,
is this something new?
I don't remember such situation for previous years/releases.
If it's working this way, we will not have tasksel/blendsel in testing most
of the time, and being unable to do anything against that, if foreign package
maintainers do not fix their packages ...
