Aptitude installs all recommended packages by default which was rather annoying until I found that in the options menu as I ran out of space a couple of times. p.s. Have the devs considered using an _apt user for doing the downloads. Should only take a couple of minutes to add. You may want an advisory to warn users to check their firewall rules however. -- _______________________________________________________________________ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
