I did a quick test and using ${basedir} appeared to work for me - note that
the basedir
is the directory with the pom, so if you unpack to "target/someosgiapp" then
you need
to use <systemPath>${basedir}/target/someosgiapp/...etc...</systemPath>

also check which build phase you do the unpacking, as the dependency will be
checked
during [resources:resources] - so you probably need to bind the unpacking
goal to the
generate-resources phase...
But maven didn't like it:
