In your case: libaws2.10.2-dev requires gnat; gnat recommends gnat-gps; gnat-gps recommends gnat-gps-doc and python-gtk2 (and requires a lot of libraries). Unfortunately, apt-get installs recommended packages by default; I systematically change this behaviour whenever I install Debian (but I use aptitude, not apt-get). You can change the behavior of apt-get in two ways: - use apt-get install --no-install-recommends - create a new file under /etc/apt/apt.conf.d and add the following line in it: APT::Install-Recommends "false"; HTH -- Ludovic Brenta. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
