Did you encounter a problem with the default behaviour? It looks like 
it, else you probably wouldn't feel the need to ask about this. Up until 
now I had the fortune of aptitude figuring out dependencies on it's on. 
Which means that either I didn't watch my installations closely enough 
and missed out on something, or something is broken on your end.

Is there a specific distribution or package you are encountering 
problems with?
