But if install only base system from mini.iso and then run `sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop` I get a lot stuff (including `gnome-control-center`) - so it is bad variant.
So there is something wrong with handling of `APT::Install-Recommends` and/or `APT::Install-Suggests` in APT regarding `xubuntu-desktop` meta-package.
Dear Sean!
I did installation as your wrote in comment 14. archive. ubuntu. com/ubuntu/ dists/bionic/ main/installer- amd64/current/ images/ netboot/ .
I started with latest mini.iso from http://
Then selected *Xubuntu desktop* in tasksel. Here I got exactly the same result as your wrote. So no problem here. Such system has 1584 packages.
