the original poster's suggestion was not to use setup.exe to download
the packages, but rather a linux box. This way you lose the dependency
tracking in setup.exe (it does not run on Linux afaik), and to

Surely if you were bothering to make a CD you'd want to include
everything anyway, thus you wouldn't need dependency checking.

Perhaps the Emacs folks (NOT XEmacs -- they already have a different

complete. Perhaps folks who have ported a package and want
