This is a bit of a pet peeve with Linux packaging systems. I want application X. $ sudo apt-get install appX This is going to instal 463 packages do you want to continue (y/n)? # HELL NO Seems like every time a language starts to get popular, this is an issue until you have 8 or 9 sets of language tools piled up that you never use.

Look for a appX-minimal package and add —-no-install-recommends. Don’t ask why these are not the defaults.
