We saw builds where runtime providers were sometimes changing order and the build result was therefore non-deterministic. For example it could show: DEBUG: providers for lib32-initd-functions are: ['lib32-lsbinitscripts', 'lib32-initscripts'] or DEBUG: providers for lib32-initd-functions are: ['lib32-initscripts', 'lib32-lsbinitscripts'] which could cause a test to pass or fail. This change ensures we don't rely on the random order of dictonaries in memory and act deterministically.

Bitbake
=======
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run
efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints.
One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software
stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website:
http://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated
html version at the Yocto Project website:

Please refer to
http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded
for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended
for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org)
but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send
the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current
branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
