I hadn't realized the implications of the fix 
https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/32850/ included a hard dependency on 
org.eclipse.osgi.  It should have been obvious to me.

I think there are other dependencies on the equinox framework that prevent 
p2 from running on other frameworks.  This will add another one.  I know 
there have been efforts in the past to get p2 to work on other frameworks 
but I don't know the status of such work.  Ian or Pascal, do what are your 
thoughts here.  The other option is to just make sure the profiles in p2 
are always upto date each release.

Subject:        [p2-dev] Make org.eclipse.equinox.p2.publisher depend on 
org.eclipse.osgi
Sent by:        [email protected]



Hi p2 community,
 
In order to fix bug 427123, I’m proposing to require the bundle 
org.eclipse.osgi, i.e. Eclipse’s OSGi framework bundle, from 
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.publisher. This would mean that 
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.publisher wouldn’t run with other OSGi frameworks 
any more.
 
Is this an issue for anyone?
 
For details on the proposed change, see 
https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/32850/
 
Regards
Tobias
