Hello. I'm running Synaptic 0.60+b2 and I was not able to make it "remember"
not to consider recommended packages as dependencies. Briefly checking
Synaptic's source seemed to indicate that the program is checking the value of
APT::Install-Recommends.

By adding:

        APT::Install-Recommends "false";

to my apt.conf file; I managed to make Synaptic behave. I suppose those who
wish Synaptic to *DO* consider recommended packages as dependencies should add
the following line to apt.conf in ${APTCONFDIR}:

        APT::Install-Recommends "true";
