I'd assume because you have the --no-install-recommends flag on your apt-get call. Maybe something you're doing requires the recommended (but not dependent) packages. I haven't done it yet, but that's my assumption at first glance, so take it with a grain of salt.

Sorry, I misled you a bit there. I didn't actually use that flag when I did it, as I already had the packages installed.
