$ less /var/log/setup.log{,.full}
$ fgrep -c 'Extracting from file://' /var/log/setup.log{,.full}
setup.log.full gives the details of the last run on that installation
setup.log is the summary of all runs on that installation

There are two sources for a complete package list:
installed packages:
$ awk '3 == NF {print $1}' /etc/setup/installed.db
$ sed '1d;/\s[01]$/s/\s.*$//' /etc/setup/installed.db
package directories:
$ find <local package directory>/*tp*%3a%2f%2f*%2f/*/release/*/ -type d | \
sed 's!/$!!;s!^.*/!!' | sort -u
but this may include some non-packages, as would similar approaches.
