Subject:	can Cygwin packages be installed from inside the Cygwin shell?
Message-ID:	<Pine.LNX.4.56.0307021444540.17329@potato.cts.ucla.edu>

Is it possible to install Cygwin packages from inside the Cygwin shell?
I've got a remote machine that is running ssh.  I need to add some
packages to it, but don't want to make the trek up to the console.  Is
there a way to install individual packages from the shell, without having
console access?  (Really from the shell, not using VNC, or some other
remote controlling application.)
