"No Karaf main found" when using runEmbedded(true) on pax exam test (Was: Is there a recent pax exam karaf provisioning example somewhere?)

Since I would like to be able to debug into the pax exam test, I tried
running the karaf container embedded again.

But I still got the "No karaf main found" error message.

I googled the error message and found this pax exam issue:
 https://ops4j1.jira.com/browse/PAXEXAM-742

PAXEXAM-742 is fixed in pax exam 4.7.0.

I am currently running pax exam 4.9.1 and karaf 4.0.9 (got the same
error on karaf 4.0.7).

Could it be that the error has reappeared in pax exam?

Or am doing something wrong in the setup or have something missing from
the setup?

Here's the config:
    @Configuration
    public Option[] config() {
        final MavenArtifactUrlReference karafUrl = 
maven().groupId("org.apache.karaf").artifactId("apache-karaf-minimal").type("zip").versionAsInProject();
        final MavenArtifactUrlReference paxJdbcRepo = 
maven().groupId("org.ops4j.pax.jdbc").artifactId("pax-jdbc-features").versionAsInProject().type("xml").classifier("features");
        final MavenArtifactUrlReference ukelonnFeatureRepo = 
maven().groupId("no.priv.bang.ukelonn").artifactId("ukelonn.karaf").versionAsInProject().type("xml").classifier("features");
        return options(
            
karafDistributionConfiguration().frameworkUrl(karafUrl).unpackDirectory(new 
File("target/exam")).useDeployFolder(false).runEmbedded(true),
            configureConsole().ignoreLocalConsole().ignoreRemoteShell(),
            junitBundles(),
            features(paxJdbcRepo),
            features(ukelonnFeatureRepo, "ukelonn-db-derby-test", "ukelonn"));
    }
