fix to store "Install recommends as dependencies" (for root and users) Edit (2.7 KiB, text/plain)

I always run synaptic as root. But if run as normal user there is a difference if Install-Recommends is true or false. So I agree with Jean-Baptiste and enhanced my patch the way he proposed. I carefully tested every situation that came into my mind (3 files involved, each can be true, false or non existent). Please test the patch with your common use-cases and comment here if you get surprised.

@reviewers/releasers: don't forget to update version info in ./configure.in - it's still 0.62.5! And please help to include this patch into Lucid LTS. It is quite low-risk and has no consequences on translations or gui.
