felix dm shell not working in application [message #1059648]

I'm trying to create an eclipse plugin. I started with the simple Eclipse Menu Command Example and then create a .target file where I have the Eclipse Platform and a custom p2 repository. One of the bundles my p2 brings in is the "Apache Felix Dependency Manager Shell (3.0.1)". It installs seemingly fine, as this snippet of the lb command shows.

604|Resolved | 4|Apache Felix Dependency Manager (3.0.0)
605|Active | 4|Apache Felix Dependency Manager (3.1.0)
606|Resolved | 4|Apache Felix Dependency Manager Shell (3.0.1)

But if I execute the 'dm' command I get:
gogo: CommandNotFoundException: Command not found: dm

I would expect to see this if the bundle were not there, but...
I'm thinking maybe the activator of that bundle didn't run but IDK. Any hints appreciated!

start 606 fixed the problem. But my question is: why did I need to manually start it? What would I need to have configured before launching the application that would state that the bundle should have been auto started?
