The previous tasks_covered and tasks_notcovered were basically unstable data structures. We couldn't always tell whether tasks should be covered or not when trying to repair the sturcture if sstate tasks reran. In the end its simpler to throw the lists away and rebuild them based upon current data rather than trying to patch it adhoc. This turns out to be simpler and much more reliable and I've much more confidence in this code.

Bitbake
=======
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run
efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints.
One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software
stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website:
http://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated
html version at the Yocto Project website:

Please refer to
http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded
for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended
for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org)
but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send
the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current
branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
