I don't understand how you could possibly think so? The recursive option plainly makes it *recursive*, i.e. it lists the uninstalled optdepends for all your dependencies. This is quite important, for example, if you are using a program named "epiphany" which does HTML rendering via webkit2gtk and you wish to know why it doesn't play media. The --recursive flag will go through all the dependencies and show that *epiphany* is not playing media because *webkit2gtk* is missing its optional dependencies on gst-plugins-good gst-plugins-bad. -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
