Circular feature dependency?

Hello,

Just a quick observation.  There appears to be a circular dependency between the karaf standard feature and the pax-web feature.  To deal with the problem the pax-web-service references an old version of karaf. e.g pax-web-8.0.6 references Karaf version 4.7.3.
Is this going to cause any issues going forward?

Thanks
Paul

Hello

Pax Web 8 features use a kind of "loose coupling" to Karaf features. It
doesn't use `<repository>` element in
https://github.com/ops4j/org.ops4j.pax.web/blob/main/pax-web-features/src/main/resources/features.xml,
just this:

<feature name="pax-web-karaf" description="Pax Web Karaf integration"
version="${project.version}">
    ...
    <feature>shell</feature>

And Karaf should provide "shell" feature - in any version.

The fact that Pax Web 8 POM have concrete version of Karaf isn't relevant
from features point of view.

kind regards
