[KARAF-4271][KARAF-4272] Fix circular features / repositories
> Karaf freezes when a circular dependency is introduced where a feature
> references itself over a chain of other features
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KARAF-4272
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-4272
> Project: Karaf
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: karaf-feature
> Affects Versions: 4.0.4
> Reporter: Roland Hauser
> Fix For: 4.1.0, 4.0.8
>
>
> Karaf freezes when a circular dependency is introduced where a features
> references itself over a chain of other features
> I did some experiments with circular dependencies where a feature references
> itself indirectly over some other features. In this case it does not matter
> if attribute {{prerequisite}} is set or not. After command {{feature:install
> c-references-a}} Karaf freezes and must be restarted.
>
> I would expect, that the feature:install command fails with an error message
> like this:
> "Feature com.foo.bar could not be installed because a circular reference:
> a-references-b
> b-references-c
> c-references-a"
> You can checkout a project which helps to reproduce the case from
> [https://github.com/SourcePond/reproduce-feature-circular-dependency.git]
> (Maven-Modules c-references-a and c-references-a-prerequisite-true). Simply
> install the root-project to have all necessary Maven dependencies.
