The current idea is not to fix the set of available cygwin-packages (and/or versions) in a local copy, neither in the softwarecenter-package, nor in a smb share, but to have the chance of updates with the same softwarecenter-package. Currently the softwarecenter-package contains only the setup.exe plus script. We have several distributions running this way (maven, npm, pypi, conda, rpm...)

Regards
Boris
