I don't think this does anything in download-only mode.  A mirror by
definition doesn't have any orphan packages as far as setup is
concerned.

These are not needed.

This doesn't do what you apparently think it does.  It's effective on
installation only and will remove all existing packages that were not
explicitly or transitively selected for installation.

Ditto.  This option is for removing packages from an installation,
selected by category.  If you also select them to be installed at the
same time (via package name or the same or another category), then the
package(s) in question will be re-installed (i.e. removed first, then
installed again).


Regards,
Achim.
