Well, two wrongs don't make one right.

An obvious solution seemed to me, to make tasksel(-*) depend on
blends-tasks. This why, the package would be marked as auto-installed,
and should you later decide to implement that differently, say directly
in tasksel, then tasksel can simply drop that dependency.
I assume though you have considered this obvious solution and decided
against it for some reason?

Regards,
Michael
