[yocto] How is the list in package.manifest derived?

I used poky-denzil-7.0 to build a core-image-minimal for the BeagleBoard.
Now I am looking for a list of everything that went into my image together
with the license information. The logical thing seems to be
${TMPDIR}/deploy/licenses/core-image-minimal-beagleboard-<timestamp>/package.manifest:

base-files
base-passwd
bash
busybox
busybox-syslog
busybox-udhcpc
initscripts
libc6
libgcc1
libtinfo5
libusb-1.0-0
libusb-compat
modutils-initscripts
ncurses-terminfo-base
netbase
pciutils-ids
sysvinit
sysvinit-inittab
sysvinit-pidof
task-core-boot
tinylogin
udev
udev-extraconf
udev-utils
update-alternatives-cworth
update-rc.d
usbutils-ids

However, I don't think this is everything that went into the image. I would
expect the kernel to be in the list as well as module-init-tools and
u-boot. Apparently package.manifest and the corresponding license.manifest
for an image target do not contain all the licensing information that a
device builder would need to give to the end customer. How is that list
created?
