Hi

Thanks for the feedback.

There's a distinction between when you do the consideration and when
you do the installation. The point here is that things go more smoothly
if you install the relevant support packages *together* with the main
one. That emphasis is lost in your version. (Perhaps "installing [...]
together with this package" would be an improvement). That said, this
wording has been in place since 2009...

On a more technical note, "Consider to install" is incorrect; it should
be "Consider installing".

Dominic
