Hello, Does aptitude read /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/*? I have seen a few scripts that seem to rely on that, yet it doesn't seem to be the case for me. If I, for example, echo 'Aptitude::Recommends-Important "false";'>>\ /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/recommends.conf and try to install minicom, aptitude will try to also install lrzsz. If I append the same string to /etc/apt/apt.conf, lrzsz (only being a recommendation) will not be installed. This works like that for me on both etch and sid. Is it something I am doing or does aptitude really not read /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/*? Thanks, --j
