you can't install without deps, but you can install without recommends:

$ man apt-get
/recommends

gives:

       --no-install-recommends
           Do not consider recommended packages as a dependency for
           installing. Configuration Item: APT::Install-Recommends.

$ man aptitude
/recommends

gives:

       -R, --without-recommends
           Do not treat recommendations as dependencies when installing new
           packages (this overrides settings in /etc/apt/apt.conf and
           ~/.aptitude/config). Packages previously installed due to
           recommendations will not be removed.

           This corresponds to the pair of configuration options
           APT::Install-Recommends and APT::AutoRemove::RecommendsImportant.


but unfortunately:

$ man apt
/recommends

gives no results, same in man pages for apt.conf and apt_preferences

sorry for having suggested the manuals are all helpful,


Claude
