No, I turned off installation of recommends. My full .aptitude/config: aptitude ""; aptitude::Autoclean-After-Update "true"; aptitude::Recommends-Important "false"; aptitude::Keep-Unused-Pattern ""; aptitude::Delete-Unused-Pattern ""; aptitude::Get-Root-Command "sudo:/usr/bin/sudo"; aptitude::UI ""; aptitude::UI::Advance-On-Action "true"; aptitude::UI::Default-Grouping "status,section"; aptitude::Ignore-Recommends-Important "true"; APT ""; APT::Install-Recommends "false"; - Josh Triplett
