Bug#758218: live-build: Packages helper includes packages excluded by tasksel
having though about this again, i think we should do two things:
* keep the Packages helper as is - it's a 'stupid' tool that just
does exactly what told: trying to install all packages matching a
certain criteria without exception/automagics etc.
* either, directly use tasksel to install the standard task and any
other tasks (i remember that there was a reason why we haven't used
tasksel in the first place, but i don't remember what it was; i
think it was because it was pulling in aptitude or something like
that)...
..or add a copy of Packages named Tasksel or so which mimics tasksel
and we would use Tasksel instead of Packages in live-images configs.
i'll check next week about this and get it done either way.
