I'll say it the installer is broke!!!!!
I've had it install orca and company also.
The last install I did using the installer I had a great number of packages that had to be removed as I wanted a somewhat minimum install.   Remove all the cuft took too long and the animosity from the debian folks was well over the top.
Any way I don't use debian for any new installs any more having gone to Archlinux.
Arch was way less trouble and I got what I wanted without removing a ton of installed things I just didn't need.
I have only three systems left running debian and they will be in the dustbin of history soon.

Did I mention the installer is broke!!!!!
