What do you mean with "a full GUI envoronment"? The only packages that I
see that you might get installed are gv, perl-tk and xterm.
I tend to close this bug because this task-package should help a newbie
user to get _everything he might need_ when working with (La)TeX
installed (and texdoctk is a big help for someone who isn't that much
familar with where to find documentation).
