Composer "suggests installing"

I tried to install getid3 through composer but it shows some notices:

Installing james-heinrich/getid3 (v1.9.17): Downloading (100%)

james-heinrich/getid3 suggests installing ext-com_dotnet (COM extension is required when loading files larger than 2GB on Windows.)

james-heinrich/getid3 suggests installing ext-dba (DBA extension is required to use the DBA database as a cache storage.)

james-heinrich/getid3 suggests installing ext-mysql (MySQL extension is required to use the MySQL database as a cache storage (deprecated in PHP 5.5, removed in PHP >= 7.0, use `ext-mysqli` instead).)

james-heinrich/getid3 suggests installing ext-rar (RAR extension is required for RAR archive module.)

james-heinrich/getid3 suggests installing ext-SimpleXML (SimpleXML extension is required to analyze RIFF/WAV/BWF audio files (also requires `ext-libxml`).)

james-heinrich/getid3 suggests installing ext-sqlite3 (SQLite3 extension is required to use the SQLite3 database as a cache storage.)

Does this mean the package will not work correctly ? How do i install packages that mentioned above? for example where is ext-com_dotnet ?

It will work correctly, it just suggest other packages that work nicely with this package as well. You don't really need to do anything with this ;)
