tasksel 2.70ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

tasksel (2.70ubuntu1) hardy; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
    - Add Ubuntu tasks and 'debian/rules update' target.
    - Install {ubuntu,kubuntu,edubuntu,xubuntu}-desktop.preinst as symlinks
      to desktop.preinst, which we keep for now although it was removed from
      Debian.
    - Add --debconf-apt-from and --debconf-apt-to options to tasksel, to
      allow better progress output for task scripts. Adjust desktop.preinst
      to make use of this.
    - Use apt-get rather than aptitude to install tasks.
    - Add new debconf variable, tasksel/limit-tasks, to allow for the
      preseeding of a subset of available tasks on install.
  * Point Ubuntu task update script at hardy.
  * Add Vcs-Bzr for Ubuntu; rename Vcs-Svn to Original-Vcs-Svn.

tasksel (2.70) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Per Olofsson ]

    desktop-environment.
  * Ditto gnome-screensaver, gnome-power-manager.

  [ Christian Perrier ]
  * Remove ttf-thryomanes from hungarian-desktop and greek-desktop
    after being confirmed that it is no longer mandatory for

  [ Joey Hess ]
  * Fix a funky $_ problem that broke calling task prerms on remove.
    (See #450777.)
  * Handle task removals in the same aptitude run as task installs
    and manual selection, using "package-" to remove packages.
