Elizabeth, thanks for your reply.
I peeked in my tree, actually it seems to be something like
tmp/deploy/licenses/${IMAGE}/license.manifest
It would be nice if there would also be a file per license (so you can
see quickly what e.g. GPLv2 licensed software you have).
Also it would be nice if the license.manifest file contained the
version number of the package (especially nice if the license has
changed over time)
I'll file feature requests for this.
Frans
