Yes, something has been broken with Aptitude for almost all the Gutsy development cycle. Its getting confused with Recommends. If you install a package you -will- get recommends installed, whether you want them or not (already reported this bug) and they won't be marked 'A' as dependency installs either (sigh....).
We've got about 10 days left until Gutsy ships, I'd say there is almost no chance Aptitude is going to be fixed in time.
