Hi, I did a implementation for this in my "apt--install-recommends" bzr branch. It will check for newly added recommends (or rather Important dependencies) on the upgrade (comparing to the currently installed version) and installs them. Feedback is welcome. GlobOr is currently missing, I'm still pondering what cases needs to be considered. Cheers, Michael -- Linux is not The Answer. Yes is the answer. Linux is The Question. - Neo
