Dear maintainer,

some tasks install packages that suggest other packagesm but there isn't
a way to install or remove the suggested packages with tasksel, unless
the configuration of APT itself contains
APT::Install-Suggests "true";
in which case tasksel installs and removes also the suggested packages.
I would find this feature especially useful for hamradio-* and electronics-*
but I wouldn't like to enable globally for every apt invocation.

Please consider adding a command line option that enables intallation and
removal of suggested packages (eg. --enable-suggest or --enable-suggested).

thanks,
Daniele
