In which screen did you select Gnome, in the screen where you can choose between Gnome, Plasme(KDE) or Custom?
Or in the screen that you get after selecting Custom?

task-gnome-minimal and task-plasma5-minimal did indeed both get installed.

and the log is quite confusing:

[marja@cldrn_64 ~]$ xzcat Downloads/bug18520report.bug.xz |grep "no packages match" | wc -l
1219
[marja@cldrn_64 ~]$

Maybe it plasma5 got pulled in to solve a missing Gnome dependency??? The output is too confusing for me to understand.

Drakx hasn't changed regarding this.
Reassigning to those who played with plasma in meta-task (compssusers + rpmsrate).
Especially, this is suspicious:
    default_selected => !$light_desktop,
