I think that you are right. It is important that debtags do this. Question: How would the hypothetical debtags-tasksel(8) handle the case where two similarly tagged packages provide alternatives? Would it install both? If so, you avoid some potential political heat from fellow DDs, but it gives the user a sloppy installation, somewhat hurting debtags and Debian in the long run. Besides, what if the two packages not only provide alternatives, but actually conflict? Erich's idea [1] seems pertinent here. -- Thaddeus H.
