For a ptxdist BSP I am managing I need to create a "hotfix" package to patch a number of files on already deployed devices.

This package will only be used on devices which are already deployed, and its files should not be part of the rootfs images if the platform is rebuilt. Is it possible to have ptxdist build an .ipk package that will not be included in the filesystem images ?

I was hoping that marking the package as "M" in ptxdist menuconfig would do the trick :) but that doesn't do what I thought.
