The pom.xml does not list osgi-compendium as a dependency hence I'm not
so sure about that. I expect that after an upgrade of felix-main and
felix-framework things will look differently. Updating OSGi dependencies
is usually not the difficult part but reverse-dependencies like Netbeans
rely on a specific version and will certainly break if we use something
newer.
