If the package MUST be imported, why if you look at the manifest of

I do understand this question the shell.tui's bundle manifest includes an
Import-Package for org.apache.felix.shell. Therefore the import works as
expected.
No no. I meant:
"the shell.tui's bundle manifest do no includes a Import-Package for
org.apache.felix.shell but it works!!!"
It looks like a bug or maybe something that I do not understand about
OSGi R4 classloading.
Also why is the "Shell Tui" bundle working?
How can it can resolve the class that define the service that it uses?
May be that the Felix's classloader uses the Import-Service?
I would not know of this, but maybe yes. Honestly, I never quite understood
the Import-Service header.
The OSGi R4 specification states that "Import-Service" should be only
used for description of the bundle and also the "Import-Service" is
deprecated, so if Felix is using the "Import-Service" for classloading
that is a bug
