Thanks for the suggestion.
I tried both 'aptitude -r upgrade' and 'aptitude --with-recommends upgrade'. A few lines before the 'Do you want to continue?', I get
'The following packages are RECOMMENDED but will NOT be installed: bzip2 perl-doc xxxx xxxx'
Is my option set incorrectly? It seems that the recommended packages are still not installed.
Thanks !

For the suggested packages I don't know... but there mioght be a text configuration file you can edit.
