I wonder, whether it would be possible to have a meta/helper bundle, which helps in this task ?
One approach would be a meta bundle with dependencies which we could deploy in an OBR repository and thus simplify installation through OSGi. Or an installation helper bundle ? Or would the karaf feature just be simple enough ? Regards Felix On 26.01.2010 02:29, Justin Edelson wrote: > There's no reason this can't work.
