OBSERVATIONS
What seems to happen is that apt vengefully removes ALL of the items associated with one task, including several base dependencies of other tasks (e.g. ubuntu-desktop)
One illustrative example is the openssh-server task:
This one includes the packages openssh-server, tcpd and libwrap0.
From a normal ubuntu-desktop (e.g. ~liveCD) both tcpd and libwrap0 are already installed, and the task-install pulls in only openssh-server.
However when the task is removed, all these three packages (openssh-server, tcpd and libwrap0) are forcefully removed.
Since libwrap0 is a core dependency of gnome, a large part of gnome will be removed alongside the removal of the task. |
