After some more research, I can partially answer myself:
It appears that the aptitude running in the chroot happily ignores
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00make-live_recommends.conf. Changing
echo "Aptitude::Recommends-Important \"true\";" >
"${LIVE_CHROOT}"/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00make-live_recommends.conf
to
echo "Aptitude::Recommends-Important \"false\";" >>
"${LIVE_CHROOT}"/etc/apt/apt.conf
seems to produce the expected behavio(u)r. I also noticed a similar
disinterest in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/* on my 'normal' etch system.
Weird. Is that a general aptitude thing?
Curiously,
