It is actually named --installpkgs, the commit message is incorrect (because I missed updating it when I changed the name) Verified on RHEL-7.3-20160811.0 with lorax-19.6.77-1.el7.

Description of problem: Adding packages to the lorax images currently requires editing the template files or building your own template directory. Upstream lorax has added a --includepkg argument for this use case. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): lorax-19.6.51-1.el7 How reproducible:100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.look for option to pass additional packages via command line 2. 3. Actual results: No such option Expected results: commandline override for package set Additional info: git log 52d962d613886121aa2b8f52562fddb714f7dd9f commit 52d962d613886121aa2b8f52562fddb714f7dd9f Author: Colin Walters <walters> Date: Tue Nov 25 22:30:11 2014 -0500 Add --includepkg argument Recently, Fedora has been trying to do a 3 product split. As part of that, lorax was changed to do "installpkg lorax-product-*" via provides. I think that approach is awkward; a much simpler approach is to simply specify the product package as input to lorax on the command line, via external rel-eng scripts. This patch therefore adds --includepkg (and we should probably add an option to remove the implicit lorax-product-* glob).
