Theppitak and Neutron,

Could you help us with this bug? Does it still make sense for
task-thai-desktop to recommend xiterm+thai?

According to git, that relationship was first added in 2003 with
https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/tasksel/-/commit/e6d3637a

I am guessing that all Thai related packages were included then. The
question now is whether xiterm+thai should be installed for everyone
using Debian with the Thai language.

Thank you,
Jeremy Bícha

I have proposed
https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/tasksel/-/merge_requests/55

I think it makes sense for this bug to remain open against live-tasks
because I want to remove xiterm+thai from all Debian Live images for
future Debian 13 point releases. The most minimal way to do that is by
updating live-tasks rather than tasksel. (Technically, it is possible
to make adjustments to the live images without doing a stable update
of live-tasks but I think there are benefits to doing it in live-tasks
directly.)

Thank you,
Jeremy Bícha
