Before going on to respond to the following paragraph I want to repeat (in a slightly different way) what I said previously. A default install sets up the installed system to download recommended packages with apt, If aptitude is installed afterwards it also downloads recommended packages by default. A failure of apt or aptitude to do this would be a bug. > For the CLI, I think you (as the appropriate user) just: > cat /etc/apt/apt.conf /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/* ~/.aptitude/config | less > but then I assume you need to study man 5 apt.conf to ascertain > which options and settable, and which are defaults, etc. and > man <command> for any defaulting options that might take precedence > over the configuration files' options.
