Hi, This might be related to bug 9138 (https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9138 ) so the bbappend order might not be the expected one.

I suggest this might be put into the SRC_URI section at https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.6/bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual.html#var-SECTION and worded something like this (at the end): The order of patch application follows the order that the patch files are included in the final SRC_URI value. So patches in prepended SRC_URI additions are put before other patches that might be contained in the base bb file or in other bbappend files, and must not generate differences that prevent subsequent patches from applying. I'm not tied to any particular location in the docs, though, so if it should go elsewhere, that's fine with me.
