Wow.  You're missing ash.  You're missing gettext.  You're missing
several libintl packages.  How in the world did that happen?  Did you
perhaps set category 'Base' to 'Uninstall' by accident?  That would be a
Bad Thing(tm).

In any case, setup.exe should be able to fix it all.  Run setup, pick a
mirror, give it a different "local package directory" than what you've
been using (to eliminate the possibility of something wonky with your
local package cache.)  Do not touch anything in the package selection
screen, don't click on anything but 'Next' until it's done.  You should
get all the missing packages.
