$ setup-x86/_64 -P "`ls .../*tp*%3a%2f%2f*%2f/*/release/ | sort -u`"
where ... is the path to your local package directory, *tp*%3a%2f%2f*%2f should
handle your download mirror directory, /*/ handles both noarch and x86/_64
architecture directories, release directory contains the package name
directories, and sort -u eliminates duplicates in noarch and x86/_64
architecture directories.
Don't forget to cp -r ~/.[a-z]*, modified /etc/ files, and rerun
{,/usr}/{s,}bin/*config scripts.
