Speaking ex cathedra (as an ex tech writer) I'd say either Included or
Installed would work, but the proper term would depend on when this
table is shown.

Included = included in the build, so it's a pre-build term.
Installed = installed in the rootfs, so it's a post-build term.
Deployed = installed onto the target - not appropriate for this list, I think.

As Jason says, packages can be built that are never inserted into the
rootfs, so if this is a list of all packages in the build, I'd stick
with Included.
