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:

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?

I think kernel and uboot  are not bundled into image but kernel modules are
why module-init-tools does not appear there might be a bug
