Controlling Setup

Controlling Setup

[Michael A. Chase]

There's no obvious way for me to limit what gets downloaded.  Is there
someplace I can look to see how to say I do or don't want particular
packages?

For example, today I just received perl-5.6.1-1.tar.gz.  I had already
downloaded and built my own copy and added the modules I needed and would
prefer not do download another version.

Did you try to click somewhere into the list window which shows
the packages? You should try to use your mouse there. It's a
GUI.

Then don't do it!
