Re: Add single package manually with setup.exe (with network).

I didn't manage to make setup.exe install only those

Setup defaults to updating packages that are already installed. What you want is 'Keep.'


Packages upon which make and nasm depend may still update, incidentally, and for good reason. This will probably pull in a few other Devel and Libs packages, and possibly parts of Base.
