[osgeo4w-dev] commandline for installing / updating all local packages

Dear all,

A quick user question regarding osgeo4w-setup.exe commandline options:

For installation in my organisation I download all packages I am interested in to a network share. From there colleagues can install stuff and we intend to provide the installation as Powershell / commandline install through the SoftwareCenter (which works fine).

However, the list of packages is quite long, and synchronising the download and installation command is an extra effort (that means also content in SoftwareCenter would have to be updated too in case of new packages...). My question is now:
1) Is it possible to install all packages from local directory without listing all packages with -P? Maybe using categories (-C) would at least reduce the length of the command and avoid listing single packages?
2) Is there a flag / command line option for upgrading all newer packages in the local directory (and not installing all packages listed)? The -g flag ("upgrade-also") suggests that everything would be installed that is listed with -P flags and I would like to be able to do an "upgrade only" command...

Thanks in advance for any suggestions esp. with regards to question 2...

Kind regards,
Stefan
