Hello All!
RPM shipped with Fedora 21+ has support for weak dependencies. What's
the current status of that feature? Is it ok to start using them
(building RPM with Recommends/Suggests tags)?

I have a real-world example where I'd like to mark a dependency as
Suggests instead of Requires and want to know if dnf is ready to
process it?

I am guessing the question is "Has dnf grown a method for dealing with Suggests" and how does it deal with it? Does it ask if you want to install something that wasn't required.. does it treat a Suggests like it is a Required and just installs it or does it ignore it unless some extra flag is add (--read-my-mind)
