Under the PACKAGES/PKG-INFO directory on the various install media, there are 
*.LST files.

These are simple file lists created by the RBE (Release Build Environment) 
during creation of a Release. 

The contain a list of all files in a package. Including, the contents of 
embedded ZIP archives in the package. 

The contents of other archive formats (like TAR, 7Z, RAR, etc.) are not 
included in the list. Only the archive file itself.
