You think? You can directly observe one of three ways:
- Check binary.packages
- Check your log of your build
- Check the running live system with dpkg -l packagename

So, using which version of live-build? Can you show us your 'lb config'
line (or better yet, auto/config, if you made one as live-manual
recommends)?
Also, provide a log of the build, please.

I've never done that before nor does
the doc say that's possible. My
conservative stance is to assume nothing, and therefore I'd say you
shouldn't do that.

Again, you assume? Why assume when you can directly observe?
