I'm trying something slightly different. I have a mirror of all the
packages so that installs are over the LAN. I want to generate a setup.ini
for all those packages, but it looks like there are many missing
setup.hints. Is this on purpose? Is this the responsibility of the package
maintainers? How is the central setup.ini generated? How could one roll
their own?

Thanks for your support. Let's get them hooked on those snazzy GNU apps!
