Perhaps in your package_config files you install with 'aptitude -r'
instead of simple aptitude?
I only use 'install'.
Which distro are you using? Is it lenny or etch?
lenny
Hasn't aptitude's default changed in lenny? In etch and earlier, the
default was *not* to install Recommends dependencies. The default in
Lenny is to install them. As others have suggested, you can set the
apt.conf file to whichever policy you prefer.
