Hi

One option is to have a maven dependency which does not expose the package 
export version number. For example, IIRC, the original javax.servlet is not 
really a bundle and those not have export version numbers.

Another idea, and that would maybe be an extension to BND itself (if not 
already existing), is that if a dependency happens to both have export version 
numbers *and* Provide-Capability, then BND would generate a version-less import 
but add a Require-Capability ??

Regards
Felix
