Description:
I wanted to install Arch without any packages from base-devel. The setup will not install packages before I have completed "Select Packages", but I only want the base packages without base-devel.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
1) Go to "Select Packages".
2) Unselect all packages from base-devel.
3) Select "Install Packages".

Now, this lets me install Arch without base-devel, but it's very user unfriendly.
This task depends upon
