Installing complementary packages should not be attempt-only, otherwise,
errors would be hidden. For example, if we enable ptest distro feature,
and we add 'ptest-pkgs' to IMAGE_FEATRUES, then building a minimal image
would succeed without reporting any error. However, the systemd-ptest
is not installed because of lack of the perl package.
Actually that was intentional under the original system design. Any of
the complementary packages were just that, complementary and not
required for the system to function properly.
If dependencies, installation issues, etc caused problems, we could
happily skip them and continue on. There are places (fairly few these
days) where the complementary packages are known to introduce a
failure, if not ignored.
This happens primarily when the complementary set introduces a package
that has a conflict (RCONFLICT or a file level conflict) with
something installed in the required set.

Thanks for your explanation :)
