Within 24 hours of installing Azure Arc on Linux our internal team noticed an issue regarding Tomcat. After reviewing the logs, we found that the base installation appears to do the following. In debian, the default configuration for installing recommendations in apt is set to true. Can the script be changed so that packages are not installed/updated/upgraded inadvertently?

`This is the apt log of the azcmagent install script (install_linux_azcmagent.sh)
