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";
