Comment(by lpinner):
Just documenting my use case. I have local admin rights on my work PC
under a separate "myuserid_admin" user account that has no internet
access. This is part of my employers IT security policy which requires
that day to day accounts must not have admin rights and admin accounts
must not have network access.
Basically this means I can't use the OSGeo4W setup program. Using pkg-apt
is an option, but I'm behind an ISA proxy that requires authentication
which means I have to put my credentials into a http_proxy environment
variable which I'd prefer not to do.
I've also tried building the installer with a modified manifest to make
the UAC elevation optional, but that fails (ticket #311).
