** Description changed:

  In Noble calamares minimal install removes kubuntu-desktop metapackage
  and kubuntu-settings-desktop package. This is not intended.
  
  The reason for the removal is that the plasma-welcome (wizard/welcome
  screen) package is rightly removed for the minimal install option, but
  both kubuntu meta and settings packages incorrectly depend on plasma-
  welcome instead of just a recommends.
  
  To correct this to make sure that our settings and meta packages remain
  installed, we need to drop those depends to the recommends. This will be
  fine, as our normal full install installs recommands and so will not
  change.
+ 
+ [ Impact ]
+ 
+  * Users installing with the minimal install option will be missing
+ Kubuntu theming, settings, and tweaks and basic metapackages.
+ 
+ [ Test Plan ]
+ 
+  * Boot ISO on system to install and go to live session.
+  * Update the kubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-settings-desktop packages from noble-proposed.
+  * Install Kubuntu using the minimal install option in calamares.
+  * Confirm on the install system that kubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-settings-desktop packages are present on the installed system.
+ 
+ [ Where problems could occur ]
+ 
+  *
