Okay. I see.

Actually, I cannot confirm that I can run Felix using "java -jar
org.apache.felix.main.jar"  =\
I've got the following output:
>>>
~$ java -jar /usr/share/java/org.apache.felix.main.jar ~/.felix/felix-cache/
No config.properties found.

Welcome to Felix

Could not create framework: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:

The cause is a "behavior" of "-jar" option. See
http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/tools/windows/java.html
- "When you use this option, the JAR file is the source of all user
classes, and other user class path settings are ignored."

I have to fix org.apache.felix.main.jar/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file a
little bit adding the following line.
>>>
Class-Path: org.apache.felix.framework-2.0.5.jar org.eclipse.osgi.jar
<<<
BTW, it looks odd to me use classes from another OSGi framework to run
Felix. Is it okay for you?

Unfortunately, even with a "fixed" manifest I cannot get a "Felix
shell prompt" =\
>>>
~$ java -jar /usr/share/java/org.apache.felix.main.jar ~/.felix/felix-cache/
