There is now only a single mention, --no-install-recommends, including
the configuration item. The default is understood to be the opposite of
this, as per the common convention.
The equivalent --install-suggests is also included.
apt (0.8.11) unstable; urgency=low
* doc/apt-get.8.xml:
- remove duplicated mentioning of --install-recommends
