[Bug 402765] New: Option to control if "suggested" packages will be installed or not.
From what I can see there isn't a clear documentation explaining recommended/suggested packages policy. From experience looks like recommended

That's a bug in translation, please create a separate report and use component 'Translations'.
b) If there is an option to control if recommended packages are installed or not, there should be another option to control if suggested packages are installed or not.
I'd say, there _could_ instead of should :O) But i also say, there _will_ be :O) (don't know when, though) I don't know about the install-new-suggests functionality, that would need support in the solver. I'm not sure whether it would be worth it.
