--------------------------------------------------------------
[~cziegeler] what about installations not performed directly via webconsole
(e.g. osgi installer or bundle list of launchpad) - and how to identify which
one to update if two with same symbolic name are availble (potentially the
newer one but a new one could also replace both).

> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Web Console
> Reporter: Dominik Süß
>
> Currently it seems not to be possible to install two bundles with the same
> symbolic name but differnt version to Felix (it is always assumed to be an
> update.
> In cases like commons-lang and commons-lang3 (symbolic name
> org.apache.commons.lang) this creates a problem since the exported APIs are
> different and you might need to use both (dependencies of third bundles).
> This currently leads to the awkward situation that one of both needs to be
> wrapped in a custom bundle to have both APIs present in the same instance.
> It should be possible to enforce installation of parallel bundles with
> differnt version via webconsole. (only question I cannot anwer right now is
> how update would detect which one to update for a further version).
