Package: release-notes
Severity: normal

The new version of aptitude in wheezy changes the default value of option
"Apt::AutoRemove::Suggests-Important" from false to true. This significantly
changes behavior of package management with aptitude by not auto-removing all
suggested packages and it might cause confusion as it is not configurable with
ui (and is not present at generated config file). Missing documentation for
this change was resolved as bug http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=685310 , however as this is an important change
introduced by upgrade to wheezy, it should also be mentioned in release notes.

Hi,

We are sorry that we were not able to handle your contribution or
suggestion for changes to the release-notes. I am going over old bugs
and I am closing all the items that were suggested for the release-notes
of Debian releases before stretch. On the good side, some even appear to
have been applied, without the bug being closed.

Please don't hesitate to open a new bug if you think your suggestion is
still valuable for the release-notes of buster. If you do that, we'd
appreciate it when you try to summarize the issue properly when the
closed bug was more than a couple of messages.

Paul
