Hi David,
A good thing could be to declare all your feature's dependencies on the
feature's pom with an <exclusion>*</> on them.
Then, you can reference that features pom on your business module
Example:
* In the feature's pom
<artId>featArtId</artId>
<depMngmt>
<dep>com.mycom:mydep:${myversion}
<excl>*</excl>
</dep>
</depMngmt>
<dep>com.mycom:mydep</dep>
<!-- You also have to list transitive ones...-->
* In the feature:
<feat "myFeat">
<bundle>mvn:com.mycom:mydep:${myversion}</bundle>
</feat>
* In your business module pom:
<dep>
mygroup:featArtId:xml:feature
</dep>
That's a little work and overhead, but it works :).
