Subject:	setup.exe handles same packages in multiple mirrors badly

Hi,

I usually start setup.exe like "setup.exe -K
http://cygwinports.org/ports.gpg" and select the cygwinports mirror
and a "normal" mirror in the mirror selection page to have the
packages from both mirrors readily available, selectable and
updatable.

Unfortunatley, setup.exe seems to not handle this properly if a
package is present on both mirrors. When I look at the available
versions for the git packages, then I only see the 1.8 versions from
cygwinports, not the newly released ones from the normal mirror. (yes,
I made sure I selected a mirror where the packages are already
available)

In such a case I think setup.exe should provide the versions of all
the mirrors for selection and auto-select the newest version
cross-mirror for update.

Regards
Björn
