Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubuntu-minimal

IMHO ubuntu-minimal is not "sufficiently minimal" yet. It depends upon
way too many packages. Working on a system with high security
constraints it doesn't make sense to install locales, Python, ntpdate or
tasksel. Actually you just need a kernel, init, udev, a simple shell,
and maybe a few other packages. Any additional package just increases
the risk.

Currently I am using OpenBSD for critical servers in my environment, but
I would like to use Ubuntu, of course.
