Package: apt
Version: 0.7.14
Severity: normal

apt-get --no-install-recommends disables the behaviour of
APT::Install-Recommends, but does not disable any configured
APT::Install-Recommends-Sections. This is rather perplexing to users
who don't understand the details of how APT manages its configuration.

Well, its the point of this configuration option to install recommends
for these sections even if recommends installation is disabled in
general… also, nowadays this list is empty, so the user will has it set
by themselves.

So, as it works as designed, closing as not a bug.
