Recent revisions

16. By Colin Watson

Update Ubuntu tasks from seeds, collapsing *-standard into a single
standard task (closes: Malone #66214).

15. By Colin Watson

Use apt-get rather than aptitude to install tasks (closes: Malone
#61684). (This means that "Packages: standard" will no longer work, but
we don't use that in Ubuntu anyway.)

14. By Colin Watson

Update Ubuntu tasks from seeds, refreshing *-live descriptions.

13. By Colin Watson

* Add --debconf-apt-from and --debconf-apt-to options to tasksel. If
  provided, tasksel will use them to allocate regions of the
  debconf-apt-progress progress bar to task scripts.
* Adjust desktop.preinst to allow use of debconf-apt-progress, and make
  its already-installed check a bit more robust. This isn't perfect
  because it uses the same progress bar endpoints for each package, so the
  progress bar will jump back and forth a little; but this is better than
  nothing.
* Install xserver-xorg in desktop.preinst.
* Update Ubuntu tasks from seeds, adding minimal and
  {ubuntu,kubuntu,edubuntu,xubuntu}-live.

12. By Colin Watson

* Ubuntu branding (Debian bug filed).
* Update Ubuntu tasks from seeds, adding edubuntu-server.

11. By Colin Watson

* Don't install mdetect or read-edid in desktop.preinst.
* Install {ubuntu,kubuntu,edubuntu,xubuntu}-desktop.preinst as symlinks to
  desktop.preinst.

10. By Colin Watson

* Generate ubuntu-tasks.desc from special headers in the Ubuntu seeds.
  Don't install debian-tasks.desc.
* Add debian/rules update target to update the above.

[ Kenshi Muto ]
* Updated japanese and japanese-desktop tasks.
  - removed legacy xfonts packages from desktop task.
  - bumped up lv for key package because less command or any other
    pager can't handle Japanese manpage.
  - took uim+anthy for default input method instead of canna.
    There is an alternative, "scim". But scim can't run on CUI.
  - removed ja-trans, doc-debian-ja, xmanpages-ja because they aren't
    maintained for a long time.
  - removed kterm and mlterm from desktop task. kterm can't support UTF8.
    mlterm has too huge dependencies and GNOME or KDE will provide a good
    UTF8 support terminal by default.

[ Joey Hess ]
* Include full CUPS support in the desktop task. This is functionally the
  same as the print-server task due to how CUPS works, although the intent
