package: src:apt
severity: wishlist
version: 1.0.6

In almost all situations when fetching build-dependencies, the user
wants the minimum set necessary in order to save time, disk space,
clutter, etc, so it would be preferable for apt to avoid installing
the recommends for <package> when doing 'apt-get build-dep <package>".

Best wishes,
Mike

commit 3518021283aa5d44e441fdce59615ca2af9d94fc
Author: Julian Andres Klode <jak@debian.org>

    * cmdline/apt-get.cc:
      - Do not install recommends for build-dep (Closes: #454479) (LP: #245273)


In fact, you can't even override it with --install-recommends. The code
is hardwired to not install recommends, so I wonder where you got the
idea from it would be different.
