Package: synaptic Version: 0.81.2 Dear Maintainer,
synaptic ships /etc/apt.conf.d/99synaptic which sets APT::Install-Recommends to true globally for all APT based applications. IMHO no application should be so arrogant to change that value globally as its default is "true" anyway and if it has been changed, it has been changed by the local administrator deliberately and should not be overriden by any application, especially not globally. If it's needed for synaptic's well-behaving (which I doubt), it should set that value internally, but not globally. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (600, 'testing'), (110, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.15-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages synaptic depends on: ii hicolor-icon-theme 0.13-1 ii libapt-inst1.5 1.0.6 ii libapt-pkg4.12 1.0.6 ii libatk1.0-0 2.12.0-1 ii libc6 2.19-7 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.12.16-2 ii libcairo2 1.12.16-2 ii libept1.4.12 1.0.12 ii libgcc1 1:4.9.1-4 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.30.7-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.40.0-3 ii libgtk-3-0 3.12.2-1+b1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.36.3-1 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.36.3-1 ii libstdc++6 4.9.1-4 ii libvte-2.90-9 1:0.36.3-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-2 ii libxapian22 1.2.18-1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.2-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-1 Versions of packages synaptic recommends: ii gksu 2.0.2-6 ii libgtk2-perl 2:1.2491-4 pn rarian-compat <none> Versions of packages synaptic suggests: ii apt-xapian-index 0.46 ii deborphan 1.7.28.8 pn dwww <none> ii menu 2.1.47 pn software-properties-gtk <none> ii tasksel 3.20 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
