  Thanks! FWIW, I don't think there's any alternative to throwing a sort into here somewhere, since ftw doesn't have any reproducible-order flag. But whether you want to sort the list of packages and then generate the output for each package, or generate the output as you traverse the tree and then sort that output, I don't know.

    Yeah it will just be more involved that way :)

    … added a patch.

      Looks plausible to me, but I don't speak C++. You're sorting file names, right? Is this guaranteed to DTRT when packages are updated? (i.e., a version number changing can't result in two packages switching order?)

        Sorting the filenames, yep. Well I hope; I don't speak C++ either...
