When you say you're building from a netinst: is that all you're using as a source for packages to use? That's not likely to work well, I'm afraid. You most likely will need more packages from a mirror to do this. Anyway: update_tasks will be trying to generate a working set of task files to work with your build, and to do that it needs the tasksel-data package. It might be possible to just use the ones in the debian-cd package (or svn) directly, but that's not how we do things any more when building the official images. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.
