Re: Make upgrade of named packages also upgrade their Recommends?

I suppose in principle I could script something that would do

   for every package specified:
     get all its dependencies, recursively (respecting that config)
     for every package specified or gotten:
       if it has a newer eligible version showing as available:
         check whether it is marked as manually installed
         upgrade it
         if it was not marked as manually installed:
           explicitly set it as automatically installed

Maybe the package debtree can be of help here.

Jörg.
