I used setup to download the latest files and this cygutils was
included. When I ran setup to install the files, I selected "Skip" for
this particular package. Each time I run Setup, I still have to click
"Skip" for the cygutils package. Is there a way to make Setup always skip
this package along with the numerous other pakcages I choose not to
install? And please don't tell me, "Install everything" because I don't
want to do that.
