Dear all,
I'm one of the maintainers of a downstream Debian repository.
We install a meta-package to install the most part of the package from
the repository.
Most of the users would like to be able to uninstall packages that are
not fully required without uninstalling the meta-package.
I've seen that it is possible to mark package as "recommended" so it
will be installed at the first installation.
If I mark a new package as recommended on a new release, does this
package will be installed on upgrade on the user system ?
Otherwise, is there a way to install a new package on upgrades that
could be remove by the user without to uninstall the package that
recommends it ?
Best regards.
