Description: The command ‘apt-get install –recommends’ is a tool used in Debian-based operating systems, such as Ubuntu, for managing software package installation. This command allows not only the installation of the specified package but also those packages that are recommended by it. Recommended packages are those that, while not strictly necessary for the main package to function, are considered useful and can enhance the user experience. By using this command, the system automatically identifies and downloads the recommended dependencies, thus facilitating a more complete and optimized installation. This is especially useful in environments where additional functionality is sought without having to manually search for and install each of the recommended packages. The ‘–recommends’ option can be used alongside other ‘apt-get’ commands, allowing system administrators and advanced users to further customize their software environments.
