Title:
  server install does not have 'standard' task installed

Status in tasksel package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in tasksel source package in Xenial:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Tests of the server ISO install are run from [1]
  The 'default' test uses the preseed at [2] to install, and then verifies that the 'irqbalance' package is installed.
  The test is failing because it is *not* installed as it was in wily given the same preseed file.
  Further diagnosis shows that the 'standard' task is not being installed, which was bringing in irqbalance in wily.

  cyphermox suggested that possibly the preseed had to be updated to have 'server' rather than 'Basic Ubuntu server', like
    tasksel tasksel/first multiselect Basic Ubuntu server
  as a result of a tasksel change [3].

  That didnt seem to make a difference, and to be clear it is the 'standard' seed, not the 'server' seed that is missing.
  Looking at logs of wily shows:
  $ grep "apt-get" /var/log/utah/utah-7-install.log  | grep server
  Jan 28 21:10:29 in-target: debconf (developer): starting /usr/bin/debconf-apt-progress --from 160 --to 800 --logstderr -- apt-get -q -y install minimal^ server^ standard^

  Where xenial shows:
  $ grep "apt-get" /var/log/utah/utah-2-install.log  | grep server
  Jan 28 18:45:08 in-target: debconf (developer): starting /usr/bin/debconf-apt-progress --from 160 --to 800 --logstderr -- apt-get -q -y -o APT::Install-Recommends=true -o APT::Get::AutomaticRemove=true -o APT::Acquire::Retries=3 install server^ minimal^

  Note the lack of 'standard^' in the xenial grep.
  Some conversation in ubuntu-devel (mostly summarized here) though at [4]
