how to exclude packages from cygwin install?

1

I'm trying to do a Quiet install of cygwin category All, but running into some errors:

package git comparing versions 1.8.3.1-1 and 1.7.9-1, result was 1
package git-completion comparing versions 1.8.3.1-1 and 1.7.9-1, result was 1
package git-cvs comparing versions 1.8.3.1-1 and 1.7.9-1, result was 1
...

My command line:

setup-x86_64.exe -R c:\dev\cygwin\root -K http://cygwinports.org/ports.gpg -q -C All

Is it possible to specify packages to exclude when choosing the All category?

The solution for me was to exclude the packages using the Cygwin UI.

I couldn't find a way to exclude them in quiet mode.
