Bug#213457: apt: Suggested packages list incomplete
Package: apt
Version: 0.5.14
Severity: normal
When installing tetex-bin, I noticed the new feature that displays
suggested and recommended packages.
However, only one package was shown under each; one very
important package (tetex-extra) which was not installed
did not show up under the suggested packages list.
