Raul Kripalani commented on HTTPCLIENT-1398:
--------------------------------------------

Hello [~olegk],

I'm writing on behalf of the Apache Camel project. We're eager to upgrade to 
Apache HttpClient 4.3 for use by our camel-http4 component. In fact, we already 
started the process, but unfortunately we're faced with no other option than to 
revert it due to this issue and HTTPCLIENT-1400, as it happens that we have 
quite a large OSGi user base.

What's more, this issue also affects several other Open Source libraries such 
as: aws-java-sdk, CouchDB driver, Apache Solr Java driver, HBase driver, all of 
which expect the private packages to be available in the OSGi container. The  
associated Camel components are also affected transitively: camel-aws, 
camel-couchdb, camel-solr, camel-hbase.

We would truly appreciate that the Apache HTTP Components project scheduled a 
4.3.1 ASAP, in order to make the Apache HTTP 4.3.x version line available to 
OSGi users as soon as possible.

Please do not hesitate to get in touch with us on the dev@camel list if we can 
be of further assistance.

Many thanks,
Raúl.
