> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Maven Bundle Plugin
> Affects Versions: maven-bundle-plugin-2.4.0
> Reporter: Arik Kfir
> Priority: Minor

> Original Estimate: 5m

>
> Maven Bundle Plugin automatically marks all packages imported from <optional>
> dependencies as optional packages in the manifest. There are some cases where
> one wants to mark a dependency as optional, but still have its packages as
> mandatory (eg. when you don't want consumers to have said optional dependency
> in their classpath).
> It would be useful to have a simple flag to turn this behavior off when
> needed. I've attached a small patch to do just that (the default of course is
> to keep the current behavior which fits most cases).
