Generated Android Manifest misses important entries like "targetSdkVersion"

Question

When I build for Android and then examine the generated AndroidMainfest.xml in Temp/StagingArea then the generated Manifest misses important entries like "minSdkVersion" and "targetSdkVersion". Also "versionCode" and "versionName" is not there. Is this intended behaviour? I though the values from PlayerSettings are automatically merged into the generated Manifest? In Unity the build completes with result "succeeded". I don't have any plugins that come with additional manifests to merge.

I use Unity 2018.2.13f1 and tried it with Build Tools 26 and 28, but with the same result. In PlayerSettings I set minimum API level to 16 and tried different values for target API level (22-28). All corresponding API levels are installed in Android Studio.

Am I doing something wrong?

Ok, I found something. The AndroidMainfest.xml in Temp/StagingArea seems to be not the one that is build into the game.apk file. I examined the generated apk file in Android Studio with "Build/Analyze AKP..." to see the AndroidManifest that is inside the apk file and the entries are all there, nothing missing.
