I would also point out not only is the recursive interpretation of
--install-suggests incorrect, it is internally inconsistent.

apt-get --dry-run remove --purge -o APT::AutoRemove::Suggests-
Important=0 --auto-remove geda geda-utils geda-examples kicad kicad-doc-
en librecad oregano qelectrotech xcircuit gerbv pcb pcb-gtk pcb-common
pcb-rnd pcb2gcode visolate caneda fritzing

Does not appear to recurse.   Neither does substituting "autoremove" for
"purge" or trying to remove suggests on "clang" the same way.

--install-suggests and install-recommends should default to a recursion
level of 1 and allow you to specify a greater level of recursion in the
unlikely event you desire.
