Hi,

[cross posting because different projects are involved in the problem]

I've just discover a problem when one tries to use e4-DI and
com.google.guava 15.0.0.

The MANIFEST.MF is really simply:
> Manifest-Version: 1.0
> Bundle-ManifestVersion: 2
> Bundle-Name: Problem
> Bundle-SymbolicName: resolver.problem
> Bundle-Version: 1.0.0.qualifier
> Bundle-RequiredExecutionEnvironment: JavaSE-1.8
> Import-Package: javax.annotation;version="1.0.0"
> Require-Bundle: com.google.guava;bundle-version="15.0.0"

and when trying to resolve it one gets:
> resolver.problem [196]
>   Bundle was not resolved because of a uses contraint violation.
>   org.osgi.service.resolver.ResolutionException: Uses constraint violation. 
> Unable to resolve resource resolver.problem [osgi.identity; 
> osgi.identity="resolver.problem"; type="osgi.bundle"; 
> version:Version="1.0.0.qualifier"] because it is exposed to package 
> 'javax.annotation' from resources javax.annotation [osgi.identity; 
> osgi.identity="javax.annotation"; type="osgi.bundle"; 
> version:Version="1.2.0.v201401042248"] and org.eclipse.osgi [osgi.identity; 
> osgi.identity="org.eclipse.osgi"; type="osgi.bundle"; 
> version:Version="3.10.0.v20140528-2014"; singleton:="true"] via two

>      |

The reason is that guava optionally imports:

Import-Package: javax.annotation;resolution:=optional,javax.inject;res
 olution:=optional,sun.misc;resolution:=optional

So guava wires to the package from the JDK and presents classes in its
API so I guess that's why the bundles who uses guava results in the
resolution conflict.

There are 2 possible solutions:
a) because we now require JavaSE-6 in all our e4 code we could remove
   the need for explicit javax.annotation imports - this would break
   existing code but is maybe the correct solution in the long run?

b) guava does import javax.annotation;1.0.0 instead
