The aptitude manual says:
-r, --with-recommends
Treat recommendations as dependencies when installing new packages
Note the *new* here. Recommendations for existing packages are _not_
automatically installed, since aptitude presumes that you do not want
that; after all you did not install the recommended packages in
previous installs of your package.
Of course this can be a problem since the recommendations may change
over time. This is probably what happened here.
Regards,
Sven
