Dear Maintainer,

I see the welcome page of gnome-initial-setup should provide a pleasant
experience for a first-time user in most cases. However, unfortunately
another page severely affects some users.

For Japanese language (and perhaps Traditional Chinese language) users
its keyboard page hurts our installation badly (See Bug#984875,
Bug#1021434, and Bug#1029821.) So task-japanese-gnome-desktop
deliberately excludes the package from its Recommends, and each
task-<language>-gnome-desktop Recommends the package only if the
language really needs it in the previous Bullseye freeze (Bug#983653.)
However, this bug has broken all our efforts.

I ask you to consider the reversal of the gnome-initial-setup inclusion.

Regards,
