Several recent enhancements to Setup have made it sooo much better. For security or licensing reasons, we are frequently required to download source tarballs and compile them ourselves. To facilitate this, I would like to ask for these two associated features to be placed into setup.exe: - mark for download all sources for all packages in a selected group or category - mark for installation all uninstalled sources for all packages already downloaded in a selected group or category (I suppose it could somehow allow groups of the boxes under "Source" to be checked off?)
