Public bug reported: On a fresh installed Unbuntu 16.04 LTS amd64 Server system the application tasksel is not working properly. Normally a the following command sould list all the packages installed when choosing the task server:
tasksel --task-packages server however on different installs of Ubuntu 16.04 LTS server amd64 this commandline only prodices the following output: ~$ sudo tasksel --task-packages server server^ Comparing straces from an Ubuntu 1404 LTS amd64 server and an Ubuntu 16.04 LTS amd64 server shows, that the applications seems to be doing it's job and searches for the relevant packages but the difference is the output. It might be worth mentioning the the 'broken' tasksel on 16.04 still exists with 0 as if everything is ok. ~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Release: 16.04 ~$ dpkg -l tasksel Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Architecture Description +++-=============================-===================-===================-=============================================================== ii tasksel 3.34ubuntu3 all tool for selecting tasks for installation on Debian systems ~$ apt-cache show tasksel Package: tasksel Priority: optional Section: admin Installed-Size: 244 Maintainer: Ubuntu Installer Team <[email protected]> Original-Maintainer: Debian Install System Team <[email protected]> Architecture: all Version: 3.34ubuntu3 Depends: debconf (>= 0.5) | debconf-2.0, liblocale-gettext-perl, apt, tasksel-data, perl-base (>= 5.14.0-1) Pre-Depends: debconf (>= 1.5.34) | cdebconf (>= 0.106) Conflicts: base-config (<< 2.32), debconf (<< 1.4.27) Filename: pool/main/t/tasksel/tasksel_3.34ubuntu3_all.deb Size: 32524 MD5sum: 05c0b76cba96994749089b55e3708069 SHA1: fbb72d7ef405c7af55f7650189d66586b643ae55 SHA256: f32056ce191459a7d88130fcb7913b3cacf6f9e96a4107a859b36828b5948c04 Description-en: tool for selecting tasks for installation on Debian systems This package provides 'tasksel', a simple interface for users who want to configure their system to perform a specific task.
