Can I install cygwin from my own setup.ini?

[Pan ruochen]

I downloaded and ran cygwin setup-1.7 as followed:
.\setup-1.7 -P alternatives;bash;ash;base-files;cygutils;make;gcc;gcc-g++;gcc-mingw;gdb;sed;ed;gawk;findutils;diffutils;popt;tar;gzip;gunzip;bzip2;man;vim;expat;libexpat0;libgmp3;libmpfr1;doxygen;upx;which;file;grep;util-linux;gcc-mingw-g++;make;mingw-zlib;mingw-bzip2

After download has been finished, I used the attached scripts to see
which packages were download. I got:
alternatives
ash
base-cygwin
base-files
base-passwd
bash
binutils
bison
bzip2
libbz2_1
coreutils
cygutils
cygwin
cygwin-doc
libdb4.1
libdb4.5
diffutils
editrights
expat
libexpat1
libexpat1-devel
file
findutils
flex
gawk
gcc
gcc-core
gcc-g++
gcc-mingw-core
gcc-mingw-g++
libgcc1
gdb
gdbm
libgdbm-devel
libgdbm4
libgettextpo0
libintl3
libintl8
libgmp3
grep
groff
gzip
ipc-utils
less
libiconv2
login
m4
make
man
mingw-runtime
libncurses-devel
libncurses8
libncurses9
ncurses
libpcre0
perl
libreadline6
readline
rebase
run
sed
tar
tcltk
termcap
terminfo
terminfo0
texinfo
tzcode
vim
w32api
which
inputproto
kbproto
libpthread-stubs
libX11-devel
libX11_6
libXau-devel
libXau6
libxcb-devel
libxcb-xlib-devel
libxcb-xlib0
libxcb1
libXdmcp-devel
libXdmcp6
xproto
xorg-x11-base
xorg-x11-devel
zlib
zlib-devel
zlib0
_update-info-dir
which were not exactly what I really expected. Some were omitted, such
as ed, util-linux and mingw-bzip2. Some are not specified, such X11.

And I used another script to get the close set of the packages to be
installed. It is:
alternatives
bash
ash
base-files
cygutils
make
gcc
gcc-g++
gcc-mingw
gdb
sed
ed
gawk
findutils
diffutils
popt
tar
gzip
gunzip
bzip2
man
vim
expat
libexpat0
libgmp3
libmpfr1
doxygen
upx
which
file
grep
util-linux
gcc-mingw-g++
make
mingw-zlib
mingw-bzip2
libintl8
libiconv2
cygwin
libreadline6
_update-info-dir
coreutils
libpopt0
binutils
w32api
mingw-runtime
libintl3
gcc-core
gcc-mingw-core
termcap
tcltk
libintl2
libncurses8
libbz2_1
groff
less
terminfo
libncurses9
libexpat1
libexpat1-devel
zlib
libgcc1
libpcre0
e2fsprogs
perl
mingw-zlib0
mingw-zlib-devel
mingw-libbz2_1
mingw-libbz2-devel
base-passwd
base-cygwin
texinfo
tzcode
terminfo0
zlib0
zlib-devel
libgdbm4
libdb4.5
crypt

The results are quite different. I wonder if I have a wrong
understanding on the dependency relationships described by setup.ini?
