Good idea, I don't know if there is a configuration item not to install

There is. It's called Install-Recommends and it's enabled by default in Squeeze but wasn't in previous releases.

You can disable it by putting

APT::Install-Recommends "false";

in a file under /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. For example, I have it in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99disable-recommends
