Yeah, I know of this regression since I forked tasksel, its priority in the package is optional and while Debian has an override to bump it to important so that it gets installed by debootstrap, we don't have this. I have plans to fix it in pkgsel and in the package.

I uploaded pkgsel 0.68~kali1 which should fix this issue.
