I'm setting up an automated "no questions asked" preseed system and using Dustin Kirkland's server preseed as an example.

He uses the following line to install three packages as part of the automated install:

d-i pkgsel/include string byobu vim openssh-server

I am looking for the inverse of this, basically be able to remove packages as part of the automated install.

• I've checked the Installation Guide
• I've checked this example preseed, but it's not clear if this is the canonical list of every single option available.

I am thinking I need to to use d-i preseed/late_command string apt-remove packagename to clean up stuff I don't want when the install is done, but I am not sure
