Freeman Fang commented on KARAF-1751:
-------------------------------------

To keep backward compatibility, we should explicitly specify the range but not let version="2.2.7" implicitly means "[2.2.7,2.2.8)"  in feature
                
> Spring feature dependencies specified too tightly

>             Project: Karaf
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: karaf-feature
>    Affects Versions: 2.2.7
>            Reporter: Chris Dolan

> Karaf 2.2.7 ships with the "http" feature that specifies pax-web 1.0.9. But I need fixes in pax-web 1.1.4 (for Jetty 7.6). So, I create my own override-features.xml with an "http" feature with version="2.2.7.override" with my version of pax-web. However, the spring-web feature (which is transitively required by CXF) declares this prereq:
> {code}
> <feature version="2.2.7">http</feature>
> {code}
> where it should be something like "[2.2,2.3)" or "[2,3)". This too-tightly-specified version causes both pax-web 1.0.9 and 1.1.4 to be loaded into my container, causing lots of problems.
> This is a issue for many of the Spring features. I request that the versions be loosened in the features.xml to allow people like me to selectively override transitive features.
