its deps has gone into testing yet, and some deps are not even available
on some architectures. Closes: #202965
* Stop #including the deps of packages in Key, since it's pointless and
only makes it more fragile. #including in Packages is still ok.
* Don't fail to build on missing key packages, since there might not be an
apt cache to look at on some buildd's, or it might not include contrib.
* The gnome-office metapackage vanished. The desktop task already includes
koffice. OOo is still mired in contrib. Took the best of a bad lot and
put OOo in as the only office software in the office task.
* Commented out mozilla-locale-es as the package is currently broken.
* Rene Engelhard
- Make all the language tasks pull in OOo and kde langage packages
consistently.
- Replace toshutils with toshset which does not need X or a kernel
interface.
the openoffice/mozilla stuff until we clear out bug #202907. Notice
that also, mozilla-locale-es is not installable at the moment so
it should not be added until #202070 is fixed).
- Completed no.po.
* Javier Fern�ndez-Sanguino
- Added missing useful packages to the spanish task
* Joey Hess
- Updated copyright date range.
- Make unselected buttons be the same color as the window itself.
Matches look of new, fixed whiptail, and Closes: #122212
- Note in README that the way to get a task added is a bug report against
this package. Closes: #144533
- Removed broken python-bobo from python task. Closes: #180925
- The python task is retargeted at providing a subset of the more useful
python tools, instead of everything. Semi-randomly removed some stuff.
Someone who uses python might want to take over maintainership of this
task.
- Capitalised first letter of every task, in an effort to look
"professional". Closes: #183109
- Removed the fortran task, not sufficiently used.
- Added mutt and spamassassin to mail server task.

some reason. Closes: #188367

Closes: #153016, #183690
- Replace netenv (with its nasty boot-time prompt) with guessnet (with
its slick new ifupdown integration) in laptop task.
- Add hdparm to laptop task, since many laptop users will want to use it
to speed up (or turn off!) their disks. Closes: #87450
- Add menu to office task.
- Added a java task. Closes: #108061
- Removed inlined Spanish translation of spanish task. However we should
add translations, it's not like that!
- Added a Thai task. Closes: #122663. Needs review since the bug's package
list was 2 years old.
- Cleaned up bad wording in most of the descriptions of the
language-specific tasks.
- Added sudo to unix-server.
- Added kernel-compile task for custom kernel building. Closes: #184428
- Blessed the idea of putting Maintainer fields in individual task files.
- Removed nonexistant packages from tasks: netscape-zh-resource-477,
dialdcost, hanterm, tktabble-dev
- Put cxterm-ks in korean task to replace hanterm. I hope that's right.
- Rename mozilla-locale-es to mozilla-locale-es-es.
- For chinese-t, use doc-linux-zh-text, which provides traditional
chinese. doc-linux-zh-t went away.
- doincludes.pl and makedesc.pl use apt-cache dumpavail instead of
dselect available file, for more up-to-date information.
- Shortended the description of c-dev.
- Renamed Essential field to Key, to prevent confusion.
- Implemented dropping of tasks that are missing key packages.
- Enhanced listpackages.pl with support for listing key packages.
- makedesc.pl too.
- Key packages do not need to be listed under Packages too.
- Updated tcl/tk to 8.4.
- Removed localces from language tasks; language-env depends on it.
- Changed around what is Key and what is not, more changes than I can
record here.
- Don't expand lsb package's deps, we want the whole thing or nothing.
- Added makeoverride.pl, which will generate an override file from a
directory of task files.
- Remove user-de and user-es, language-env superscedes.
- Back to just gimp for desktop task.
- If a task is not in the task desc files, but is in the available file
as a Task: line, do not display it.

an inconsistency in which packages do spanish/french/german/danish/...
provide. Some include GUI-related packages (mozilla-locale-XX,
openoffice.org-l10n-XX, kde-i18n-XX) others do not, some include
documentation (besides manpages, which is sometimes in Essential:
but sometimes not) and some others do not.
Maybe we need a consensus/suggestion of what should be in tasks related to
languages?
* Added Danish language task by Claus Hindsgaul <claus_h@image.dk>.
* Fixed OOo name. Closes: #158936
* Patch from Jeff Licquia <licquia@progeny.com> to make tasksel use all
*.desc files in /usr/share/tasksel, to allow third parties to drop in
their own additional tasks.
* This build, at least, will not contain CVS dirs in the source package
(because I build with DH_ALWAYS_EXCLUDE=CVS set, and pass -ICVS to
dpkg-buildpackage. Closes: #148759
* Added wireless-tools to the laptop task as laptops increasingly use
wireless cards. I think adding wavemon too is a bit too much.
Closes: #168948
* Make the tasksel menu entry work as non-root. Closes: #144340
* #include gnome metapackage in desktop task, no need to track gnome
anymore.
* Added an "office" task, which will include openoffice when it is in
debian, and currently includes the stuff in gnome-office. IIRC we three
talked about such a package for woody, but there did not seem to be enough
to put in it; there certianly is now.
a task if all of its essential packages are not available, which will make
it easier to make CD's that include some package that happens to be in a
task, without having to drag in that whole task or get the confusing
situation of having tasksel display the task, but install only one
ancillary package from it.
* Changed python task to use python instead of non-existant python-base.
This task still needs a lot of work.
* Updated Danish translation da.po by Claus Hindsgaul <claus_h@image.dk>
* Updated to use debhelper v4 and misc:Depends; removed outdated copyright
info from debian/rules.
kde metapackage, so its entire dep list is put in the task, and if it does
not ship with woody, we still will get kde. Closes: #135797
* The same include mechanism should probably be used for the other
metapackages, like the junior stuff (and X?). But not right now.
* Removed junkbuster from dialup; probably not going to ship with woody, if
it manages to somehow it is really in too bad shape to expose newbies to
it. Closes: #131295
kde metapackage, so its entire dep list is put in the task, and if it does

Closes: #116609, #129999
* Make the basic-desktop task incude all of x-window-system (so it gets a
WM and xterm and so on), while the desktop task uses just
x-window-system-core (because it already has a WM and so on from
gnome and kde). Closes: #129217
* Removed pydb from python task, because Colin Watson said to.
Closes: #129520
* it.po translation added, da.po added (Closes: #122668), ja.po updated,
pt_BR updated (Closes: #122965)
