Rick Hillegas commented on DERBY-4024:
--------------------------------------
Hi Bryan,
Felix is the Apache OSGI implementation. Currently, we include the Felix
binary, felix.jar, in tools/java so that we always build Derby's OSGI binding
(EmbeddedActivator). We checked felix.jar into the Derby source tree as the
solution to DERBY-1670.
> Replace felix.jar file with the felix sources

> In order to bundle Derby with popular linux distributions like Debian and
> Ubuntu, it must be possible to build Derby from sources and existing linux
> components. By replacing Felix jar with the corresponding sources, we move
> another step closer to being able to bundle Derby with linux distributions.
