Title:
  ppc64el no software selection option

Status in tasksel package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Observed Behavior:
  During the install of Yakkety or Xenial on a ppc64el system there is no option to install additional software. No tasksel screen or even an option to choose additional software.

  Expected Behavior:
  A screen like the one attached titled "Software selection" should appear towards the end of an install to allow the user to customize the system software.

  Steps to Reproduce:
  1. Obtain a Xenial [1] or Yakkety [2] server ppc64el ISO
  2. Start install, select defaults
  3. Note that you are never asked to select additional software
