John Ross commented on ARIES-1387:
----------------------------------

The clause and header classes are not part of the spec. They are implementation 
specific and private. They are all intentionally immutable and should remain 
that way. That's a relied upon guarantee all over the code.  It would be great 
to abstract out the common functionality but you may find that to be a larger 
piece of work than initially anticipated.

> Currently the org.apache.aries.subsystem.core.archive.SubsystemContentHeader 
> class (line 210) and other headers classes uses a HashSet in order to hold 
> its clauses.
> HashSet doesn't ensure the order of its items and then its impossible to have 
> a reproducible build of any manifest file. As the SubsystemManifest class 
> doesn't provide a equals() method, we can't compare a generated manifest file 
> with any template in a test, it will fail.
> The propose it to change the used HashSet for the LinkedHashSet class.
