             Summary: Spring feature dependencies specified too tightly
                 Key: KARAF-1751
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-1751
             Project: Karaf
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: karaf-feature
    Affects Versions: 2.2.7
            Reporter: Chris Dolan


Karaf 2.2.7 ships with the "http" feature that specifies pax-web 1.0.9. But I 
need fixes in pax-web 1.1.4 (for Jetty 7.6). So, I create my own 
override-features.xml with an "http" feature with version="2.2.7.override" with 
my version of pax-web. However, the spring-web feature (which is transitively 
required by CXF) declares this prereq:

{code}
<feature version="2.2.7">http</feature>
{code}

where it should be something like "[2.2,2.3)" or "[2,3)". This 
too-tightly-specified version causes both pax-web 1.0.9 and 1.1.4 to be loaded 
into my container, causing lots of problems.

This is a issue for many of the Spring features. I request that the versions be 
loosened in the features.xml to allow people like me to selectively override 
transitive features.
