As I understand the &quot;minimal&quot; task it should only provide the packages
to run a respective environment. Chat or other such functionalities do
not belong in a minimal installation.

As for your example: when you set up gnome-minimal and after that
install a chat application it should be this application package's
task to draw all necessary dependencies (like gnome-contacts).
