Is there an easy solution to the following problem? From time to time (every couple of weeks or few months) I happen to have to use a different Windows machine on a different customer's site. I always want to use Cygwin there with "my" favorite packages.
This means that every time I have to setup Cygwin (this is OK, not much work) and then go to all the package and manually flag what I want to have included (this *is* much work, and error-prone, since I tend to overlook something). I guess that Cygwin maintains somewhere on the hard disk a file containing a list of all installed packages. Is it possible to save this file on the old machine, and after having setup a minimal Cygwin on the new machine, put that package file on it, call setup again and tell it to reinstall the most recent versions of these packages? (BTW, I wonder whether this would be a good entry in the Cygwin FAQ, since probably many users will have the same problem when moving to a new computer).
