I'm not sure you can really do this via the search language right now. You could just disable recommendations and see what would be removed: $ aptitude -s -o 'apt::autoremove::recommendsimportant=false' -o 'aptitude::recommends-important=false' -o 'aptitude::keep-recommends=false' -o 'apt::install-recommends=false' install Daniel _______________________________________________ Aptitude-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/aptitude-devel
