Hi,

is there an easy way of pre-downloading whatever is necessary to do a
later local Cygwin install?

Note: the recommended method of using Cygwin itself is not available to
me, since I only have a GNU/Linux computer on the Net (lucky me ;-)

Wgetting all of <http://cygwin.com/packages/> would seem a tad wasteful
to me (plus I don't know whether the cygwin installer does any "magical
munging" on the packages while downloading).

I trolled the lists and the FAQ, but I seem to be moving in circles.

Regards
