Description Alexander Shchadilov 2020-08-22 17:26:13 UTC

"Include recommended packages" checkbox in YaST/"Online Update Configuration" is disabled by default (after installing yast2-online-update-configuration). I suggest changing the default state as all other update methods that rely on Libzypp behave differently (by default).
In YaST/"Online Update" this is configurable via "Dependencies"/"Install recommended packages" (enabled by default), other software will honour solver.onlyRequires option from /etc/zypp/zypp.conf (false by default, meaning that recommended packages are installed).
I think that generally a user expects that turning on automatic updates will schedule the same process as that is initiated with updating manually.

Hi Alexander, thanks for the request.

Let's put it in the queue to be evaluated.

Well, I believe that such change IS a feature request.
And as such, it needs:

- PjM blessing
- Release notes
- Docu change
