Because the apache package does not have
Recommends: yast2-http-server
in its specfile.
The other way round is also possible: add
Supplements: apache2
to the yast2-http-server package.
(Open a bugreport and it might be added ;-)
This would be useful for every YaST module, so maybe it {c,sh}ould be
made a general policy:
- "If there is a YaST module for a package, the package should recommend
it" - or -
- "each YaST module should have a Suplements: for the package it
configures"
This might even be the better solution because it is easier to check
("each YaST package must have at least one Supplements: statement")
I'm cross-posting this mail to the opensuse-packaging mailinglist
because packaging policies are better fitted there. Please answer only
to the -packaging mailinglist if possible.
(Packagers, do you like the above proposal?)
