Bug description:
  Now that recommends get installed by default it would be nice to add
  the ability to select packages to be installed without recommends in
  high-level- application managers and the meta data package (apt-
  install-data).

  This would allow distributions to provide easy installation of
  stripped down applications ... as in the case of gnome-support for
  firefox.

  =======

  Installing Firefox 3.03 on a new Kubuntu 8.10 install using adept
  requires installing some gnome files (not just gtk files).  It appears
  that firefox has been compiled with a gnome use flag.
