</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> It's already a suggests and urpmi already handles smoothly its absence.

I don't know about this one specifically, but couldn't there be 'no-suggests' 
option (named for example &quot;install only strong dependencies&quot;) in the 
installer, under the form where you select the kind of packages you want ?
