Hello Robert,
Excuse me, but my English is not so good, and i didn't understand one
sentence from your answer:
"...which is something I'm seriously considering nuking."
What does the word "nuking" mean?

What is the re-download functionality you are speaking about?

The solution you propose is also less than satisfactory. It means that
setup won't be looking at what you need, but rather at what you have
'available'. The real cause of the problem is setup's re-download
functionality, which is something I'm seriously considering nuking.
