base-config (2.44ubuntu22) warty; urgency=low

  * When running base-config without 'new', drop into aptitude rather than
    automatically installing the ubuntu-desktop task (closes: Ubuntu #1677).
  * Make warning about unsupportedness of 'universe' in
    /etc/apt/sources.list scarier (closes: Ubuntu #1564).
  * Remove 'main restricted' from the universe line, so people don't end up
    with duplicate sources.list entries.
  * Honour answer to apt-setup/universe question.
