Hello Pascal, Personally I think it makes sense to support HttpComponents 5, this time we won't have to deal with OSGi stuff, because they're not supporting it.
So, unless Karaf will release the OSGi bundles for these jars, we'll have to make it work only on plain camel and SB. Eventually when we'll switch to the JDK http client, we can always have also the other alternative, the http5 one. So +1 for me.
