Public bug reported:
NOTE: This bug was filed via `ubuntu-bug` on an Ubuntu Server machine
post-install. The issue appeared on the Xenial ISOs, and likely still
exists (pending a Yakkety image I can dig up which will actually install
on a VM).
While not part of the ISO testing, it was discovered by myself that the
"Manual Package Selection" task no longer operates in the Ubuntu Server
installer ISO.
The ISO probably absorbs this error, but this error is output to the
Terminal when you try and use "manual package selection" in tasksel
post-install:
Can't exec "/usr/lib/tasksel/packages/manual": No such file or directory at
/usr/bin/tasksel line 295.
Use of uninitialized value in split at /usr/bin/tasksel line 295.
With 15.10 and earlier (Trusty included), this is not an issue, 'manual package
selection' works in both post-installation and during the installation of the
system.
(This was tested on the Server ISOs, and with Ubuntu Server
installations)
