Please specify the dependencies with "select" from the "label" of the
dependend packet. Example:

config YOURPACKAGE

	select BUSYBOX
	select COREUTILS
	select DIFFUTILS

The other dependencies can still be "depends". PTXdist generates the
dependencies from the select statements that correspond to the labels.

However, note that ptxdist only knows about "dependencies", not about
runtime vs. compile time dependencies. But for your case it shouldn't be
a problem. What does currently not work is to specify a compile time
dependency (i.e. to a library that consists only of a static lib or a
C++ header file) but no related runtime dependency. You can still have
an empty packet for the static lib, but it can't be avoided.
