In the Links package, we have this:
<bridgehead renderas="sect4">Recommended</bridgehead>
<para role="recommended"><xref linkend="gpm"/> (if mouse support is
desired) and
<xref linkend="openssl"/></para>
My take is that Recommended is actually wrong here. I think the proper
syntax should be:
<bridgehead renderas="sect4">Required</bridgehead>
<para role="required"><xref linkend="gpm"/> (if mouse support is
desired) and
<xref linkend="openssl"/> (if SSL support is desired)</para>
If you want the support these two dependencies provide, then the dependencies
are *required*. Let's actually use correct terminology in these types of
instances.
Please, if you disagree or have comments feel free to provide them. I'm
simply making suggestions here. I would like feedback from others.
