Ok, I wasn't sure about omhacks status since I don't use it
myself. So remove omhacks from middle layer list. The important
selection would be Phone UI then. Probably Middlelayer selection can
be just removed and it's just

Phone System:
[ ] SHR
[ ] Zhone
[ ] Zavai
[ ] None

FSO should be installed due to their dependencies and None will
leave you with a blank install. Once there is a oFono UI it should
be added to the list.

To be honest I don't know, but I guess it will come once meego is
there. I for myself really like FSO, but Debian describes itself
as the universal OS, so IMHO we should give users the option to
choose whatever they want.
