You don't really need to prepare. I'm not sure about apt-listbugs,
aptitude does use apt-listbugs and because aptitude knows what you are
currently trying to install it is easier to adjust your intentions to
the output of apt-listbugs. I guess with apt-get you could use command
history but that doesn't directly help you with dependencies.
you'll have to try. One thing some people don't like is that by
default, aptitude installs Suggests: as well as Depends: packages.
You could be right but I don't remember that happening.
