You should create and select a so called 'collection' and disable these 
packages in this collection.

it works:
touch packages
ptxdist --collectionconfig=packages.txt menuconfig collection
ptxdist --collectionconfig=packages.txt images

Note, if you want to build the packages but not add them to the images, the
do this (with no collection selected):

# build everything
$ ptxdist go
# don't add everything to the image
$ ptxdist --collectionconfig=configs/mycollection images

That way you have the ipkgs available and you can install them with
opkg/ipkg later.
