This is for using so called collections, which are not well
documented. You can create so called collection configs for different
sets of packages. 'ptxdist menuconfig collection' allows to edit
those and there's a symlink selected_collection (?) in your BSP. You
may search the mailing list archive, IIRC there were some explanations
over the years.
