Manual package selection ubuntu что это
I’m installing Ubuntu Server 13.10 and I need to minimize the installation size and overhead as much as possible Using manual package selection could be of a great help but I’m not sure which are the important packages for the system operation and which are not
Is there a reference for that?
In addition. in this page https://help.ubuntu.com/13.10/serverguide/preparing-to-install.html the table suggests that there are two versions on Ubuntu Server (e.g. Ubuntu Server and Ubuntu Server Minimal)
How to get the Minimal Server version?

Just a side note, 13.10 will reach end of life next month. Why not go with 14.04 ?

Because I need to use a software and it doesn’t support Ubuntu 14.04 yet
And regarding the link you provided, it doesn’t answer my question

You can get the minimal server packages from the mini.iso from that link.
Afaik the kernel’s the same for both the desktop and server versions.
(Of course what on earth do I know, you know?)

Using Taskel I found that my system has only two «tasks»; «Basic Ubuntu server» and «OpenSSH server»
I don’t need to install extra packages I need to uninstall the unnecessary ones making the difference between Ubuntu server and Ubuntu server minimal
These two versions are mentioned here https://help.ubuntu.com/13.10/serverguide/preparing-to-install.html

From my first link :
The Minimal CD will download packages from online archives at installation time instead of providing them on the install CD itself. Downloading packages at install time reduces the size of the install CD to approximately 5 to 30MB depending on architecture (see below), as well as providing only the packages needed for installation. The download time savings achieved by using a Minimal CD can be significant, as only current packages are downloaded, so there is no need to upgrade packages immediately after installation.
With Ubuntu Minimal, you can either end up with a server or a desktop edition, depending on your choices, the main difference being packages are not provided on the CD but are downloaded during the install procedure.
Installation / MinimalCD
Installation guides are available for using the new installer on various architectures, including for netboot scenarios. Get help migrating to the current Ubuntu Server installer on Ubuntu Discourse!
This installer is based on the Subiquity installer software. It was previously referred to as «server live installer». It uses curtin for disk partitioning. On the installation target, cloud-init handles the initial network configuration.
Status of the Minimal ISO image
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS was the last Ubuntu release which «mini.iso» images were produced for. These images, which Canonical and the Ubuntu project never officially supported, were always limited to BIOS booting on the amd64 and i386 platforms only. They existed as a by-product of building the old server installer (based on «debian-installer»; later called «alternative installer»).
- amd64 (checksums and signatures)
- i386 (checksums and signatures)
For reference: The old mini.iso
Introduction
The minimal iso image will download packages from online archives at installation time instead of providing them on the install media itself. Downloading packages at install time reduces the size of the iso image to approximately ~40MB depending on architecture (see below), as well as providing only the packages needed for installation. The download time savings achieved by using a mini iso can be significant, as only current packages are downloaded, so there is no need to upgrade packages immediately after installation. The mini iso uses a text-based installer, making the image as compact as possible.

- For help with USB drive burning, see Installation/FromUSBStick
- For differences between Ubuntu release versions, please see Releases.
To install, boot your computer from the the mini iso and select «Install» at the prompt. You can then follow the instructions from the text-based installer. On the software selection screen, you can select from a number of collections of software such as different desktop environments (kde, xfce, etc), a multitude of different servers, multimedia creation tools, media center (mythbuntu), etc. You can also select «Manual package selection» which will take you to aptitude. You may also select nothing and just continue to finish the installation. If you selected nothing, upon reboot you will arrive at a cli prompt; from here you can fully customize your new system.
UEFI mode
While the minimal iso image is handy, it isn’t useful for installing on UEFI-based systems that you want to run in UEFI mode. The mini iso lacks the proper files for booting the computer in UEFI mode. Thus, the computer will boot in BIOS compatibility mode, and the installation will be in BIOS mode.
You can use an Ubuntu Server amd64 iso file (64-bit) for ‘mini installations’ in UEFI mode. There is a compressed image file dd_text_16.04-UEFI-n-BIOS-4-pendrive-7.8GB.img.xz of such an installed system, that can be used as a start of a custom installation.

General link that seems reliable
This general link has worked for some years, and seems to be kept up to date. It helps you to find and download fully functional official Ubuntu mini.iso files

Перевод «package selection» на русский
If you choose «manual package selection» without selecting any tasks, no packages will be installed by default.
Если вы предпочли «выбор пакетов вручную» и не выбрали ни одной задачи, то по умолчанию не будет установлено ни одного пакета.
The review stated that the package selection and hardware support seemed to lag behind other systems, while many of the system administration features have either replicated or ported to Linux and BSD.
В обзоре было указано, что выбор пакетов и аппаратная поддержка, похоже, отстают от других систем, в то время как многие функции системного администрирования либо реплицируются, либо переносятся на Linux и BSD.
If you do want to choose what to install on a package by package basis, select the «manual package selection» option in tasksel.
Если вы хотите выбирать устанавливаемые пакеты из списка пакетов, в tasksel выберите «выбор пакетов вручную».
Linuxin is a distribution based on Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 (woody) and is oriented towards the Spanish end-user (desktop) with a simplified installation that includes hardware autodetection and a small package selection directed towards users with little experience.
Linuxin — это дистрибутив на основе Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 (woody), ориентированный на испанских конечных пользователей (настольные компьютеры), с упрощённой установкой, включающей автоопределение аппаратного обеспечения и небольшой выбор пакетов, облегчающий работу не очень опытным пользователям.
For manual package selection, the aptitude program is being run.
Для ручного выбора пакетов запускается программа aptitude.
Linux system distributions may vary in many details of system operation, configuration, and software package selection.
Системные дистрибутивы Linux могут различаться во многих деталях выбора операционной системы, конфигурации и программного пакета.
Cons: Limited number of officially supported applications; conservative in terms of base package selection; complex upgrade procedure
Минусы: ограниченное количество официально поддерживаемых приложений; консервативный с точки зрения выбора базового пакета; сложная процедура обновления
During the package selection phase of the project, significant work was undertaken to ensure that the selected package would meet a revised set of business processes for the finance and budget areas.
На этапе осуществления проекта, связанного с выбором пакета, была проделана значительная работа для обеспечения того, чтобы выбранный пакет отвечал ряду пересмотренных рабочих процессов в финансовой и бюджетной областях.
Ubuntu Server Edition brings all the wonderful characteristics of Debian to the front — it’s modular, efficient, has a huge package selection, and is easy to install and manage.
Ubuntu Server продвигает все самые лучшие характеристики Debian вперед — это модульность, эффективность, наличие огромного количества выбора пакетов, и легкость в установке и управлении.
Зачем manual package selection в Ubuntu?
Дистрибутив Linux Ubuntu как и любой другой дистрибутив это система с открытым кодом, в которой вы всё можете изменять самостоятельно, вплоть до того что установить чистую серверную версию без графической оболочки и заполнить только теми программами и утилитами (пакетами), которые нужны непосредственно вам под ваши задачи и ничего лишнего, Manually select packages для этого и существует — это руководство по администрированию пакетов, как и куда устанавливать и какие зависимости между файлами.
