Yup, it's a bug in
/usr/share/ltsp/plugins/ltsp-build-client/Debian/030-fat-client:
if [ -n "$option_fat_client_desktop_value" ]; then
FAT_CLIENT_DESKTOPS="$(echo
$option_fat_client_desktop_value | tr ',' ' ')"
EARLY_PACKAGES="$EARLY_PACKAGES $FAT_CLIENT_DESKTOPS"
fi
It is only respected if passed via commandline.
The Debian/030-fat-client hook also has a couple minor other issues;
I'll get it fixed upstream tomorrow, and try to get it into the upcoming
Debian release.

The Debian implementation is a little different and it doesn't do much
other than add packages to the list of packages to install.
