jcrinstall cannot replace bundles installed by other means
----------------------------------------------------------
Key: SLING-683
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-683
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: JCR Install
Reporter: Bertrand Delacretaz
Trying to update the webconsole via jcrinstall, for example, causes a second
copy of the bundle to be installed, and that fails to register with the HTTP
service, as the URL is already taken (which is fine).
We could enable replacement of existing bundles by jcrinstall by having
BundleResourceProcessor.installOrUpdate method check if a bundle exists in the
OSGi framework, based on its Bundle-SymbolicName, compare versions with the
incoming bundle, and update or install accordingly.
That would prevent installing two different versions of the same bundle, so we
might also delegate the install/update decision to a service, to allow for
customizable behavior.
