This seems to be a common issue and I am also questioning the need to have a 
cache. 

Richard can you explain the rational behind the bundle cache and why it can't 
be disabled?

Thanks
Patrick

Short answer, no. At least not in the sense of truly "disabling the 
bundle cache", because the mere fact that you want Felix to remember 
that there are bundles in the cache to re-get means that it must be 
saving something.

However, you can install a JAR file into the cache by reference using a 
URL like "reference:file:/path/to/jar", but this approach is not perfect 
if you have embedded JAR files and/or native code.
