Ok, this one worked! thanks

Therefore if it is included implicitly involves dependencies or requirements by other recipes.

Both components were simple recipes created by my own.

I have discovered the root of my confusion, I had a "Hello World" recipe in my layer, which was in the image, hence I thought It was included implicitly. 

But I was wrong, /usr/bin/hello was already in the default image, some other layer/recipe adds it.

Whats the experts' way to find out the origin of a deployed file?

Hopefully there is a faster way than searching whole $BUILD/tmp/work

Thanks again
