Package: fonts-noto
Version: 20181227-1
Severity: important
The package description states
"Use this package if you want all Noto fonts".
But if one puts "APT::Install-Recommends 0;" in /etc/apt/apt.conf,
some noto fonts, namely
fonts-noto-cjk
fonts-noto-cjk-extra
fonts-noto-color-emoji
fonts-noto-extra
fonts-noto-mono
fonts-noto-ui-core
fonts-noto-ui-extra
fonts-noto-unhinted
are not installed. They should be depended instead of recommended.

That's not a bug but a feature, to support exotic exceptions.
Treating all packages as exotic exceptions e.g. by setting
"APT::Install-Recommends 0;" is unsupported by Debian.
Feel free to do that but beware of mentioning such setting *EVERY* time
you report a bug, to let others know that you broke your system
yourself.
