A very good FOSS source.

Hi,

I'm currently writing a series of Ansible roles and playbooks to install
Debian Trixie on servers and desktops.

On RHEL-based systems you can use dnf group install Base to get a
reasonably complete set of command-line tools like vim, tree, man pages,
links, lynx, pinfo, etc.

What would be the Debian equivalent of that? Of course I can still try
to make a list of all the command-line tools I'm using in my daily work.
But before doing that I wonder if there isn't some easier way to do this.

Debian seems to have tasksel lists for various desktop environments. Is
there something similar for common command-line tools ?

Cheers,

Niki
