Bug#197840: apt: Displays 'suggested' and 'recommended' packages even if they are scheduled to install
Package: apt
Version: 0.5.5.1
Severity: wishlist
Output from apt like this...
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Suggested packages:
gkrellm-hddtemp
The following NEW packages will be installed:
gkrellm-hddtemp tcm tcm-doc
...is probably less helpful than needs be. It would be nice if you
removed things from the suggested and recommended lists when they are
being installed as part of this command.
The display of them is very helpful, though, so thanks for that.
