When doing my version of a minimalist install, I use a lines 
similar to:
tasksel tasksel/first multiselect standard
d-i pkgsel/include string mate-desktop-environment-core xorg 
xterm lightdm pluma synaptic gparted

After browsing the man pages for aptitude and apt-get I was 
wonder if I could come closer to my goal with fewer experimental 
iterations if I could disable the installation of "recommended" 
packages.

I envision something *SIMILAR* to:
tasksel tasksel/first multiselect standard
d-i pkgsel/include string mate-desktop-environment pluma synaptic 
gparted

TIA
