Nicolas Lalevée commented on IVY-706:
-------------------------------------

I have no strong opinion about dependencies management with OSGI bundle. I just 
know that having the jar embedded evict the library version management issues, 
especially with xerces. On the other side we loose the flexibility.

In fact I did this patch to make easier for Eclipse beginner to start playing 
with IvyDE with the sources. Probably it is IvyDE that should embed these jars. 
So people who wants to build IvyDE trunk can do it directly without 
configuration editing. And keep Ivy as a light bundle.

But this bug could not be closed as invalid because the {{Import-Package}} 
declarations are need, aren't they ? (I am more an Eclipse player than an 
OSGI-spec reader)

> Ivy has recently been packaged as an OSGI bundle by adding a MANIFEST.MF. But 
> it is not correct since the runtime jars are not declared in the manifest.
