    Agreed.  Yes, urlgrabber(?) recommends ncftp...  But I use lftp, quit
bugging me about it.  ;)

    Would it be possible to have it prompt for recommendations only if the
package is not already installed?  If we have it installed and haven't
chosed the recommendation, chances are there is a good reason and we don't
need to be bugged about it.
