Public bug reported:
I want "apt-get install" to install both recommended and suggested packages.
I've tried to get it to do that as it is documented and also as has been
discussed here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=43382. I have failed
to get it to install the suggested packages. Here is what I have tried
sudo apt-get --install-recommends --install-suggests install <package>
sudo apt-get --install-recommends -o APT::Install-Suggests=true install
<package>
sudo apt-get install <package> --install-recommends -o
APT::Install-Suggests=true
(adding a file, 99all, to /etc/apt/apt.conf.d, containing:
APT::Install-Recomments="true";
APT::Install-Suggests="true";
It seems like the feature is broken.
