Acknowledged; but I wonder why you don't just use intermediate metapackages. This wasn't supposed to be an issue because I didn't envision that people would be attempting to use Task-Seeds all the way down the inheritance chain. For Ubuntu, an example looks like this:
required -> minimal -> standard -> desktop-common -> desktop minimal declares Task-Seeds: required, and desktop declares Task-Seeds: desktop-common; we don't need to do more than that because there exist ubuntu-minimal, ubuntu-standard, and ubuntu-desktop metapackages. Task- Seeds was only meant to bridge the gap between seeds where it's worth building metapackages for them. ** Changed in: germinate (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist ** Changed in: germinate (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/629337 Title: Add a way for germinate-update-metapackage to recursively add packages from seeds specified in the "Task-Seeds:" field To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/germinate/+bug/629337/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
