Public bug reported:

Foiund in: ubuntu-xen-desktop_0.0.1-2ubuntu3 from feisty

Sorry if I seem like an idiot, but this doesn't make sense to me.

The output of "apt-cache show ubuntu-xen-desktop" is:

<quote>
Package: ubuntu-xen-desktop
<snip />
Description: Xen software for running on servers.
 This package will install a suite of software for running Xen on servers.
 .
 It is safe to remove this package once installed, the pacakges themself don't
 depend on it.
 .
 This will install the i386 version, xen-tools and xenmann.

To me this seems like a contradiction.  Is it for a server or a desktop?
If it is for the desktop the description needs to be updated.  If it is
for a server, I think it is poorly named.  Alternatively just rename
ubuntu-desktop to ubuntu-server for installing the ubuntu desktop to
stop any confusion ;)

I am sure I am not the only idiot out there scratching their head over
this one.
