Brian Topping commented on CONFIGURATION-482:
---------------------------------------------
This is kind of treacherous because jxpath has it's own set of rather
undesirable dependencies that need to get pulled in for closure on the
otherwise optional / unnecessary jxpath dep.
Oliver, what can we do to help you set a fix version on this? :)

> Key: CONFIGURATION-482
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-482
> Project: Commons Configuration
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build
> Affects Versions: 1.8
> Reporter: Chris Seieroe
> Priority: Minor
>
> The following page lists the runtime dependencies based on the components.
> This is reflected in the pom file since many are listed as optional (e.g.
> commons-jexl). However, if you want to use commons-configuration in an OSGi
> container, those become required because the corresponding packages are
> listed in the manifest's Import-Package section. They do not have the
> "resolution:=optional" qualifier on it so you get an error if you do not
> include something like commons-jexl yourself.
