[Bug 1622958] Re: tasksel --task-packages <task> not working

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Note that all tasks in ubuntu are driven by seeds, and one can inspect
the germinate output for all seeds at http://people.canonical.com
/~ubuntu-archive/germinate-output/

E.g.:

http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/germinate-
output/ubuntu.xenial/server.seedtext

http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/germinate-
output/ubuntu.xenial/server.sources

Are possibly of interest. There are all sorts of expansions available -
sources, build-depends, depends, recommends, etc.

Bug description:
  Kernel: 
  Linux lnx 4.4.0-36-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 11 18:05:09 UTC 2016 s390x s390x s390x GNU/Linux

  Description/Reproduction:
  the command "tasksel --task-packages <task>" is not working

  root at lnx:/etc/apt# tasksel --task-packages server
  server^

  The command does not hang. It is the output.
  The 16.04.01 is the first release for s390x. There was no release before.

  tasksel --list-task works fine

  I can also invoke ncurses menu with tasksel.

  Attached you can find the sosreport.

  I expect to see (ppc Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS):
