By default, Ubuntu or Debian based "apt" or "apt-get" system installs recommended but not suggested packages .

By passing "--no-install-recommends" option, the user lets apt-get know not to consider recommended packages as a dependency to install.

This results in smaller downloads and installation of packages .

Refer to blog at Ubuntu Blog .
