Bug Description

Binary package hint: stopmotion

If stopmotion tries to recover from a crash, it adds the images in the order returned by readdir, which is undefined, effectively turning the animation into a random permutation of itself:

$ touch file1
$ touch file2
$ touch file3
$ rm file2
$ touch file4
$ ls -f
.. . file4 file3 file1
$ touch file5
$ ls -f
file5 .. . file4 file3 file1
$ rm file3
$ touch file6
$ ls -f
file5 .. . file6 file4 file1
