apt-get deps

[mis]

Is there a way to tell apt-get install to fetch the requested package AND the required dependencies?

Thanks,
Mis

Ummm...it should automatically

The only time I've seen apt not install all deps automatically is when the stuff in your sources.list does not match your current install (eg. you're running potato and the info in your sources.list is pointing at woody [testing/unstable]). If this is the case, then you need to run an apt get update, apt get dist-upgrade (dist-upgrade can seriously screw your system if its not done right... so be careful!)
