             Summary: Felix Multi-Bundle distro should not set 
org.osgi.framework.system.packages property
                 Key: DOSGI-155
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DOSGI-155
             Project: CXF Distributed OSGi
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Product
    Affects Versions: 1.4
            Reporter: David Bosschaert
            Priority: Minor


The multi-bundle distribution contains 2 felix configuration files:
* conf/felix.config.properties.append
* conf/felix.discovery.config.properties.append

Both these files specify the *org.osgi.framework.system.packages* framework 
property:
{noformat}org.osgi.framework.system.packages=org.osgi.framework; version=1.5.0, 
\
 org.osgi.framework.launch; version=1.0.0, \
 org.osgi.framework.hooks.service; version=1.0.0, \
 org.osgi.service.packageadmin; version=1.2.0, \
 org.osgi.service.startlevel; version=1.1.0, \
 org.osgi.service.url; version=1.0.0, \
 org.osgi.util.tracker; version=1.4.0, \
 org.apache.karaf.jaas.boot; version=2.2.9, \
 org.apache.karaf.version; version=2.2.9, \
 javax.crypto, \
 javax.crypto.spec, \
{noformat}
and so on...

This property should really be left specified by the framework itself as its 
value will depend on the version of the OSGi framework and the Java runtime 
used. The values specified are very likely incorrect in a number of cases (for 
example if you use the latest version of Felix, the org.osgi.* values are 
incomplete and the versions incorrect).

It looks like the main thing here is to add the *org.apache.karaf* packages to 
the framework packages. This should really be done via the 
*org.osgi.framework.system.packages.extra* property, without specifying any of 
the packages provided by the framework or the JRE. E.g.

{noformat}org.osgi.framework.system.packages.extra=\
 org.apache.karaf.jaas.boot; version=2.2.9, \
 org.apache.karaf.version; version=2.2.9{noformat}

I briefly tried this but it seems there is an issue with resolving the 
javax.xml.stream package, and I noticed that in the current configuration it 
was actually removed from the list.

So in order to fix this situation some work will need to be done make sure that 
the default value of the *org.osgi.framework.system.packages* property will 
work.
