You have assumed I would install from the Internet. But I've been
installing/updating Cygwin32 offline from a local mirror and on more
than one machine, and that for a long time without ever needing any
packages from /contrib. I don't remember when the contrib directory
got introduced. And I have assumed it would be similar to Red Hat
Contrib, i.e. optional, not strictly required.
:There is no need whatsoever
:to go rooting around in the cygwin directory structure.

I do need to know what to mirror locally because I let a script
preselect interesting packages and not download the rest.
Anyway, thanks for trying to help.
