Re: [tycho-user] Using "Automated Management of Dependencies" when build

[Igor Fedorenko <igor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Unless I misunderstood how automatic dependency management works,
additional.bundles is only half of the puzzle. It tells the tooling what
bundles can be used to look for dependencies, but actual Import-Package
(or Require-Bundle) have to be calculated during the build by analyzing
bundle classes.
