Bug#1006165: bullseye-pu: package tasksel/3.68+deb11u1
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: bullseye
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu
Hello,
I would like to do a little update to tasksel, to make tasksel install
CUPS for all desktop tasks.
In the past (buster and before), it was like this as well, via a different
approach: there was a "task-print-service" task for this, which has been
removed for bullseye.
Holger
[ Reason ]
This adds the CUPS system to all installations, which select a desktop
environment to install. This changing is in testing already, and works
fine there (tested yesterday).
[ Impact ]
There have been several reports from users being irritated by CUPS not
being installed on their desktop system. Such problems are new to
bullseye.
[ Tests/Risks ]
Installation tests have shown, that there are no problems installing
CUPS on desktop installations, like broken/unresolvable package
dependencies, so there should only minor risk here.
