<glossdef>
<para>
Determines which recipe should be given preference for
cases where multiple recipes provide the same item.
Functionally,
<filename>PREFERRED_PROVIDERS</filename> is identical to
<link linkend='var-PREFERRED_PROVIDER'><filename>PREFERRED_PROVIDER</filename></link>.
However, the <filename>PREFERRED_PROVIDERS</filename>
variable lets you define preferences for multiple
situations using the following form:
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
PREFERRED_PROVIDERS = "xxx:yyy aaa:bbb ..."
</literallayout>
This form is a convenient replacement for the following:
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_xxx = "yyy"
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_aaa = "bbb"
</literallayout>
