Richard S. Hall commented on FELIX-2205:
----------------------------------------
The issue is that there is no relationship between bundle version and package
versions. If I have bundle Foo 1.0.0 and bundle Bar 2.0.0 both of which export
org.woz, which provider should I choose? Comparing the bundle versions is
meaningless since the bundles do not have the same symbolic name.
If you really want to treat your package versions as if they are in lockstep
with your bundle version, you'd be better of explicitly assigning the bundle
version number to your package versions. At least then it would be clear what
you are trying to achieve. Your proposal leaves your package versions at 0.0.0
but hopes that they get handled as being the same as the bundle version.
Keeping this desire implicit seems to be a recipe for disaster, especially
since the specification defines different priority rules for the framework
resolver.

> Reporter: Emily Jiang

> I have three bundles that have the same symbolic names with different bundle
> version and export the same package. The package is not versioned. The
> resolver is unable to pick up the highest version of bundles, which is the
> bundle4. It randomly picks one bundle.
