             Summary: Create dependant feature KAR files when KAR:Create find external feature dependancy
                 Key: KARAF-5204
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-5204
             Project: Karaf
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: karaf-kar
         Environment: N/A
            Reporter: George McCone
            Priority: Minor


It would be nice if the KAR:Create command could create additional KAR files to capture all the listed dependencies for the requested feature. Currently you have to manually review the feature that you are exporting to a KAR and look for feature references that are external to the feature. This external feature review then has to be performed recursively on each external feature.

A good example of this is the aries-rsa repo which references the feature "scr", which is defined in the "standard" repository. After I exported aries-rsa, and tried to start it, it was missing the bundle org.apache.felix/org.apache.felix.scr. Manually created the "standard" KAR to include the "scr" feature and aries-rsa-core feature then started successfully.
