I noticed when reinstalling kaffeine-trinity that also installed as "recommends" were :
kdesudo-trinity, kpackage-trinity
I do not use or want either of those on my Debian system and can't see the reason for this.
Although it is not a problem for me to purge them, this could be seen by some Debian users as another example of enforced use of Ubuntu-style sudo on Squeeze/TDE
It is not easy to work out whether installing (especially multiple packages) with "no-recommends" is a good thing or not; that sometimes means reduced functionality.
My concern is, there are probably other TDE packages which behave similarly. I don't know if this counts as a bug or is for some reason intentional.
Any comments?
