Hi all, I was about to submit a wishlist bug, and then wondererd: isn't '-o APT::Install-Suggests=true' recursive? (In the sense that it will also add the suggested packages from the suggested packages.) The --install-suggests I have in my mind is not: the user cases would be with our CDD metapackages, that either Recommend or Suggest, or packages like t-coffee or bioperl that have a long list of suggested packages that are usually dispensable. By this mail, I just would like to check that those use cases are not corner cases, and that asking for a non-recursive "--install-suggests" option also makes sense to others.
