Public bug reported:

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 17.10
Release:        17.10

$ apt-cache policy tasksel (and tasksel-data)
  Installed: 3.34ubuntu9
  Candidate: 3.34ubuntu9

Selecting the "Vanilla GNOME desktop" task during installation using
Artful's mini.iso results in only about 80 additional packages being
installed, compared to "Ubuntu desktop"'s 1000+. This results in little,
if anything, more than a basic minimal install.

Running "tasksel --task-package ubuntu-desktop" returns "ubuntu-
desktop^", while running "tasksel --task-packages vanilla-gnome-desktop"
returns nothing at all.
