[Bug 985258] Re: [omap4] tasksel shows seeds unavailable in the preseed image

[Adam Conrad]

This is a by-product of the preinstalled-package-pools thingee from last
cycle not actually being fully implemented (I never got around to doing
task generation).

Over the last cycle, I've not once had a user praise the availability of
local packages, mind you, while many have whined about the image size
exploding.  I'm wondering if it might not be better to just drop the
feature and shrink the ARM server images to a comfy size again.

Title:
  [omap4] tasksel shows seeds unavailable in the preseed image

Status in “tasksel” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  During installation on armel+omap4, tasksel shows seeds that are
  unavailable on the preinstalled images such as Kubuntu LiveCD.
  Installation was done with no network connectivity availabile, and
  these seeds are uninstallable without connectivity. In addition, I
  don't believe they should be listed at all for a server image, to be
  consistent with x86 (which does not show seeds that are unavailable on
  the CD).

  Steps to Reproduce:
  1. Proceed through the installer as normal
  2. Check tasksel list when tasks are selected.
