gnome-tasksel
=============

This is gnome-tasksel, a GNOME front end to Debian's task system.

"Tasks" in Debian are special groups of packages that are related, and
can be installed or removed as a group.  They allow people to decide
to install "GNOME" or "all the development files" without having to
know which packages are needed or which packages contain important
components for those tasks.

The canonical task front end is "tasksel".  This packages does not use
tasksel's code in any way; it is an independent implementation of the
task system in Python.  (It does use a description file from tasksel
to get information about the available tasks.)  The goal is for this
implementation to be functionally identical to that of tasksel.

Note that the interface for gnome-tasksel is completely GNOME-based;
all of its functions must be accessed through the GUI.  If you need
text-mode or automated task management, please use tasksel.
