Description

Fileinstall sometimes, incorrectly, believes that a property has been changed and thus overwrites it (if FileInstall is configured to write back configration changes) in the configuration file.

This is because the configuration file is parsed differently on the original reading of the configuration file compared with the reading when a configuration has been updated.

This has been described in more detail in the following conversation on the Felix user mailing list:
