//In accordance with the Debian Policy Manual (which says "The 'Recommends'
field should list packages that would be found together with this one in all
but unusual installations"), the package management system now installs
packages listed in the Recommends: field of other installed packages as well
as Depends: by default. If you want to avoid this for specific packages, use
apt-get --no-install-recommends; if you want to make this permanent, set
APT::Install-Recommends in /etc/apt/apt.conf. //

The Tamil equivalent is in progess an I need a clarification here on the
above cited paragraph.

Is it right,

//If you want to avoid this for specific packages, use
apt-get --no-install-recommends; if you want to make this permanent, set
APT::Install-Recommends in /etc/apt/apt.conf //

Or should it be,

//If you want to avoid this for specific packages, use
apt-get --no-install-recommends; if you want to make this permanent, remove
APT::Install-Recommends in /etc/apt/apt.conf //

It appears that by default 'apt' will install the recommended packages,
which means entry for it will be there in /etc/apt/apt.conf

So to override that, a User has to remove it from the file? Please clarify.
