Hey I installed the Ubuntu Budgie 18.04 (bionic) Beta.  
I selected the minimal option to try that out while installing.  
But later I realized there are packages missing so I want all missing packages from minimal to full version.  
Is there any way to go from minimal to full?

Ok I found the link for list of missing packages [https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntubudgie-dev/ubuntu-seeds/ubuntu-budgie.bionic/view/head:/desktop.minimal-remove](https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntubudgie-dev/ubuntu-seeds/ubuntu-budgie.bionic/view/head:/desktop.minimal-remove)  
But how to get them all ?

I haven’t tried but I guess installing ubuntu-budgie-desktop

This is the meta package for the entire distro.

ok … I’m currently helping out with the 18.04 release candidate testing effort … so I installed a VM with a minimal install as part of one of the test cases …

This is how I got stuff to reinstall:

```
sudo apt install aptitude
sudo apt purge ubuntu-budgie-desktop
sudo aptitude --with-recommends install ubuntu-budgie-desktop
```

I couldn’t know if that works because i already installed all the packages in the file (above mentioned link) using `xargs`.  
I performed the above commands  
`sudo aptitude --with-recommends install ubuntu-budgie-desktop`  
_The following NEW packages will be installed:_  
\_ ubuntu-budgie-desktop \_  
_0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded._  
_Need to get 0 B/4,140 B of archives. After unpacking 10.2 kB will be used._  
_Selecting previously unselected package ubuntu-budgie-desktop._  
_(Reading database … 411411 files and directories currently installed.)_  
_Preparing to unpack …/ubuntu-budgie-desktop\_0.32\_amd64.deb …_  
_Unpacking ubuntu-budgie-desktop (0.32) …_  
_Setting up ubuntu-budgie-desktop (0.32) …_

The there is no change. Maybe since I installed all the packages already.  
Anyway thanks a lots…
