Bug#717298: debian-installer: After installing xfce environment, don't see xfce
Control: notfound -1 Jessie Peter Chubb peter.ch...@nicta.com.au (2013-07-19): Package: debian-installer Version: Jessie Severity: normal Jessie isn't a known version of debian-installer in the archive, so removing it from the found list for this bug report. I did a clean install using the netboot.tar.gz +pxe method, selecting the XFCE desktop environment. But when the machine booted, it presented a Gnome desktop environment. I expected to see XFCE. XFCE is present, and I was able to modify /etc/lighdm.conf to make it be the default. However, I expected it to be this way out of the box, and for gnome not to be installed at all. It would probably be nice to check what happens with the next d-i upload (which will happen after eglibc 2.18 migrates to testing); the default desktop change might have changed a few things… Thanks for your report.
