Public bug reported:
Aptitude automatically selects recommended packages.
Neither --without-recommends nor setting APT::Install-Recommends seem to
have any influence.
Reproduce:
* kick out packages which are just recommended (using apt-get)
* start aptitude
* press "g"
This behavious is observed since several releases, at least existing in several
releases
(at least in saucy and trusty).
It renders aptitude virtually unusable in cases where you do NOT want the
recommended
packages installed automatically.
