Hi,

I have two apps, one contains an exported provider that the second app
uses to look up values.  I recently decided it'd be a good idea to add
read and write permissions to the provider, but now I've run into an
issue.  If I install the app reading from the provider first it'll
crash with a permission denial.  If I install the provider first,
everything works fine.

I'm guessing behind the scenes when the app is installed it checks if
certain permissions exist and gets rid of them if they don't.  So when
I install my reading app without the provider present it removes the
read/write permissions I've defined and causes problems when it later
tries to access the provider after its been installed.  While
specifying and order for install isn't the worst thing ever I'm
wondering if there is a workaround for this

The app with the provider was designed to be used by a suite of
different apps so I can't just combine the two

Thanks in advance,

Jason Prenger
