# Since Docker users are looking for the smallest possible final images, the # following emerges as a very common pattern: # RUN apt-get update \ # && apt-get install -y <packages> \ # && <do some compilation work> \ # && apt-get purge -y --auto-remove <packages> # By default, APT will actually _keep_ packages installed via Recommends or # Depends if another package Suggests them, even and including if the package # that originally caused them to be installed is removed. Setting this to # "false" ensures that APT is appropriately aggressive about removing the # packages it added. # https://aptitude.alioth.debian.org/doc/en/ch02s05s05.html#configApt-AutoRemove-SuggestsImportant Apt::AutoRemove::SuggestsImportant "false";

Use this original configuration file when you need to restore APT to its default state after misconfiguration, during fresh installations, or as a baseline for customization. It's particularly useful for troubleshooting when your current config isn't working properly.
Download this file and replace your current configuration at /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/docker-autoremove-suggests
. Make sure to backup your existing configuration first, then restart the APT service to apply the changes.

This configuration is specifically from Debian 9 (Stretch). Different operating systems and versions may have slightly different default settings, security patches, or feature availability. Check the compatibility section above for other OS versions.
Yes, this original configuration is excellent for troubleshooting. Compare it with your current settings to identify modifications that might be causing issues, or temporarily replace your config with this one to isolate problems.
