Actually I hadn't appreciated that there is a plain package list in that 
directory now in addition to the license manifest; however with this version:

1) It's right next to the image(s) instead of in another directory

2) The package version is in the same file next to the package name rather than 
in a separate file where fields are spread over multiple lines (which is harder 
to process)

3) It includes the package architecture

4) This isn't for licensing purposes, so it doesn't include any license 
information

Cheers,
Paul
