Description Per Hallsmark 2017-11-20 11:59:56 UTC 
There is a machine dependant _append that do not have a space. If this one is not the first _append it will add itself straight after any previous content instead of as a new "list member":

[phallsma@arn-build3 meta-intel]$ find . -name "*.bbappend" -exec grep _append {} \; | grep \"file
SRC_URI_append_intel-x86-common = "file://0001-Add-GUID-for-SMBIOS-3-entry-point-structure.patch"

[phallsma@arn-build3 meta-intel]$ 


It should instead be like 

SRC_URI_append_intel-x86-common = " file://0001-Add-GUID-for-SMBIOS-3-entry-point-structure.patch"

(note the space between " and file://...)
