In that case you're bothered also with recommends which won't be
installed (to let you know what you're missing :O).

So shell we make it configurable in zypper.conf?
[summary]
details = version,repo,vendor,...
showRecommends = true/false
showSuggests = true/false

or something like that

as well.

I'd rather put that into the 'info' command, but yes. I'll do it as part
of the info command rewrite, hopefully in time for 11.3.

Sure. Any volunteer to implement this before i get to it? :O)
