Description Gabriel Barbu 2014-04-22 13:34:51 UTC 
Adding a package that depends on perl (i.e. perf) to an image that does not have ptest-pkgs as IMAGE_FEATURES (like core-image-sato) results in the perl ptest being installed:
cd tmp/work/p2020rdb-poky-linux-gnuspe/core-image-sato/1.0-r0/rootfs/usr/lib
find -path "*/ptest"
./dbus-ptest/ptest
./perl/ptest

My opinion is that this bug is not a duplicate of the dbus one.
The bug is related to different recipes.
The dbus fix is already upstream thanks to Chong Lu,
but the perl is another this, so a different recipe.
I will try to investigate this and offer a fix.

Hello guys I am kind of in a dilemma with this bug.
If any of you has an idea why the ptest directory 
for perl package ends up residing into the rootfs 
I would appreciate the support.
Comment 5 Vaduva Alexandru 2014-05-20 14:47:29 UTC 
I believe that all I need to do is disabled the tests on install when ptest is disabled, but I do not know the proper way to do this.

perl-modules sneakily gained a dependency on perl-ptest.  Patch submitted.
