Well, I was always confused in selecting/deselecting packages during setup. And I often got the information about some package is required by another in the final step. So I decided to try patching the setup source code to make the setup more easy for me (and maybe for other people).

I would be very pleased to offer the setup patched binary excutable as well as the patched source package, if anyone gets in the same trouble as me during cygwin setup.
Or, you could just use the -P option available in the 1.7 setup. It takes a comma separated list of packages that you want and installs them for you.
