Click the upper right button to get the "full" view and you don't have to muck around with the categories. Then simply scroll down and click all "skip" icons twice to install the current version (the version will be displayed). Indeed, a PITA, but only a lot of clicking the first time you run setup. Thereafter, in full view, you just have to look for "skips" from new packages. The ones that are currently installed will be updated by default from now on. > could someone please update the FAQ? and/or fix setup.exe? I'll do the former, but the latter is already underway. If the latter doesn't happen fast enough for your taste, you could help.
