That's not how pungi is currently working, a "minus-package" seems to
unconditionally exclude the package.

I don't see what the --exclude statement would do in %packages in a
kickstart file.  It is also not listed in the anaconda documentation:

  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Kickstart#Chapter_3._Package_Selection

However, the "minus-package" statement is (for anaconda) described as

  "You can also specify which packages not to install from the default
   package list"

which is certainly not how pungi is handling it now.

I think I'll file a bug and see what the pungi maintainers think.
