I have the follow pseudo-feature: <features name="my-feature" xmlns=" http://karaf.apache.org/xmlns/features/v1.3.0"; xmlns:xsi=" http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://karaf.apache.org/xmlns/features/v1.3.0 http://karaf.apache.org/xmlns/features/v1.3.0";><feature name="C" version="${project.version}" start-level="25" install="auto"> <bundle start-level="25">...BundleC1...</bundle></feature> <feature name="A" version="${project.version}" start-level="30" install="auto"> <feature prerequisite="true">C</feature> <bundle start-level="30">...BundleA1...</bundle></feature> <feature name="B" version="${project.version}" start-level="35" install="auto"> <feature prerequisite="true">C</feature> <bundle start-level="35">...BundleB1...</bundle></feature> C is independantA depends on CB depends on C In this example the bundle 'BundleB1' imports wrong major version of 'BundleC1' and we get the "missing requirement" error (as expected). However if i log into the karaf console and run 'feature:list' i will see that C is Started, A is Uninstalled and B is Uninstalled. I expect A to be Started since it only has dependencies to C. A will start fine if i comment out the entire C feature or if i afterwards run 'feature:install A' If i put each of these three features in seperate feature.xml files i get the expected outcome of C+A as Started and B as Uninstalled. What am i doing wrong? Am i missunderstanding how the prerequisite attribute works? As a sidenote; if i skip the prerequisite attribute all together, no feature will get installed whatsover...
