> The specification says:
> The OSGi framework resolver only considers Capabilities without an effective directive or effective:=resolve. Capabilities with other values for the effective directive can be considered by an external agent.
>  The effectiveness active is a convention commonly used for situations that do not need to be resolved by the OSGi framework but are relevant in using the resolver for assembling applications.
> The feature resolver considers the capability as a strong requirement, whatever if it's effective or not.
> I think it makes sense to consider this capability requirement for the build, but runtime could consider effective capability as optional.
> It would be great to either update the features resolver that way or add a configuration in org.apache.karaf.features.cfg defining strong or optional requirement for effective cap.
