Woody: Making apt-get follow recommendations & suggestions

[Holger Rauch <Holger.Rauch@heitec.de>]

Hi!

When installing a kernel-source-<version> package on a newly installed
system using apt-get, I realized that only dependencies are taken into
account, but not recommendations and/or suggestions. Especially when
installing a kernel-source package, however, it would be nice to get
everything required for compiling a kernel at once (meaning without the
need to look for additional packages).

So, my question is: How can I make apt-get follow recommendations and/or
suggestions? If this is not possible, is using aptitude a possible
solution? Or are there any other alternatives (besides using "dselect").

Thanks in advance for any info!

Kind regards,

	Holger
