I've noticed a mismatch in tasksel versions between jessie and ascii.

The desktop jessie install has a higher tasksel version than the ascii
install.

Is this expected?

goat@ascii-server:~$ apt-cache policy tasksel
tasksel:
  Installed: 3.33+devuan0.3
  Candidate: 3.33+devuan0.3
  Version table:
 *** 3.33+devuan0.3 500
        500 http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged ascii/main amd64 Packages
        500 http://packages.devuan.org/merged ascii/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

goat@jessie-desktop:~$ apt-cache policy tasksel
tasksel:
  Installed: 3.33+devuan1.0
  Candidate: 3.33+devuan1.0
