Are the dependencies also pulled in if you do

     apt-get -oAPT::Install-Recommends=false install liblinear1

? If not, you may want to set that option in /etc/apt/apt.conf or
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/.

Thank you very much. Just tested (purged the liblinear1 and nmap before) and it worked.

This apparently works around the issue!

I've created 90NoRecommends in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ with this content:
+++++
# Prevent apt to pull in packages that are not dependencies but only recommended.
APT{ Install-Recommends "false";};
+++++

But is this really intended behaviour? Shouldn't this "recommends" be moved into "suggests"?

best regards

Marco
