   i'm sure i've overlooked something silly, but in building a

   EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES += "ptest-pkgs"

only *some* of the ptest packages are added to the image. eg: while
bzip2-ptest is built, it is not added to the image, as are a number of
other ptest packages. if i *explicitly* add that package, then it gets
included.

   is there some obvious reason that a number of ptest packages are not
included in the resulting image, despite them being built?
In your example, was bzip2 actually in your image or was it only built?

I suspect it only installs ptests for things actually in the image.
   yup, i read in the ptest wiki page that the ptests are installed
only when the associated regular package is also installed, and i did
verify that bzip2 was installed.

   oh, wait ... damn it ... just noticed that my build incorporates
busybox, which probably gets in the way of installing *numerous*
ptest packages that would normally be installed. does that sound like
the culprit?

As far as I know, if bzip2 is brought in by some other package's ptest (e.g., A-ptest rdepends on bzip2), then bzip2-ptest will not be installed. It's not just ptest, all complementary packages have this problem.
