Hi, tasksel installs two entire office suites on a freshly installed Debian
desktop system, namely openoffice.org and gnome-office. So there are two word
processing and two spreadsheet applications (plus the IMHO rather useless
planner application) installed, which all require hard disk space and
installation time. I'd suggest to drop one of both office suites either
directly in tasksel or by e.g. making the gnome meta-package depend on
something like "gnome-office | openoffice.org-gnome". Cheers, Fabian
