  EDR> Are those 2 apt sources the same? if not which is correct?

The first  one is correct, the  second is wrong.  I've updated the FAQ
accordingly, sorry for the confusion.

  EDR> These instructions from the FAQ are somewhat confusing:
  EDR> "* from the command line issue:

  EDR>    # apt-get install demudi

  EDR> * install the tasks you are interested in. To have a look at them run:

  EDR>    # apt-cache search demudi

  EDR> The task demudi installs them all."

  EDR> Installing package demudi appears to only install some pixmaps and pngs.
  EDR> Attempting to install any of the demudi-<foo-task> packages returns
  EDR> saying that it's not available and is replaced by demudi. Maybe these

Yes, that information was out of date, reload the  page and read again
now. Your guess is correct you have to use tasksel..

  EDR> I must be missing something pretty basic here.

No, you were quite on track :) Thanks for your report.

Cheers,
