Re: wheezy install missing contrib and non-free




Thanks Andrei! I'm an "aptitude" user most of the time, so I didn't know about that feature of apt.

Is there a similar option for aptitude that I've overlooked?

If you want to be sure you got all the recommended packages (including

line work to list out all the recommended packages from those you

because they weren't available when their "recommender" packages were
being installed.  I don't have the problem, myself, so I haven't
worked out the magic, but I'd start by reading up on the search syntax
for aptitude.  Then sort(1) and comm(1) will be useful. I'd guess.

apt-get install --fix-policy --install-recommends

Kind regards,
