Hello!
I want to use dab to create a Debian 7 Wheezy OpenVZ server-template that includes all basic packages and configurations that is needed for every Debian OpenVZ Container in my local network.
Here a the important entries in my dab.conf I used to accomplish this task.
When using tasksel in Debian to install the "Standard system utilities" it does not install all of the X11 packages but when using the default "dab bootstrap" command it will install x11-apps, x11-common, x11-session-utils, x11-utils, x11-xfs-utils, x11-xkb-utils and x11-xserver-utils.
The problem is I want to install all of the commonly used system utilities but i don't want the X11 tools or a X-Server to be installed on my Debian Servers.
And I am not really sure what packages i exactly need otherwise I would just install the minimal packages and install all others after that manually.
So is there a possibility to use dab bootstrap and install all "common system utilities" but not the X11 stuff?
Maybe some people are interested in what packages come with either the default "dab bootstrap" or the "dab bootstrap --minimal" so here are the lists.
These packages are additionally installed when using not the "--minimal" parameter.
141 packages
