It is assumed that people that do not use aptitude (or a tool that installs recomends - dselect does IIRC) know what they are doing and are aware enough to look at the recommends. this is completely in the debian's philosophy. Recommends are packages that gives a big gain to the package that recommends them, but that are not *necessary* for it to work. procmail for kmail is exactly in that case. -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O madcoder@debian.org OOO http://www.madism.org
