That was ugly! Since I have a time configuration problem I just

Since I chose nothing at the install packages step it is about to

Sorry. base-config shows a menu, where you can select what to
configure. If you select to change your package selections, it will
just do it. Just don't select to change your package selections, if
you don't want to change them!
I unchecked everything in the install packages section because I
didn't want to install anything. (I only wanted to reconfigure my
time settings). It was not the least bit clear that that would remove
anything. It looks like nothing serious was actually removed but it
looked quite serious at the time.
