Thanks, both hints are very useful. I ended up putting this into a
custom library bundle along with some other non-osgi jars. (I'm looking
at integrating Parquet and it has 10+ other dependencies including avro
and some hadoop libs - it seemed overkill to wrap each in a bundle).

I didn't do it but for the sake of completeness: I found you could use
the following when provisioning an p2 site via p2-maven-plugin
(https://github.com/reficio/p2-maven-plugin)

Thanks again.
