Virgo won't use Velocity 1.7.0, only 1.6.2 [message #819148] |

My understanding is that Velocity 1.7.0 is now an OSGi-ifed bundle, but Virgo absolutely won't load it when it's placed into the repository/usr/ directory -- the only version of Velocity I can get Virgo to use is the SpringSource EBR version, which is stuck at 1.6.2 (presumably because the official 1.7.0 is supposed to be fully OSGi-supporting).
The testing I've done is simple -- I put the com.springsource.org.apache.velocity bundle into my repository/usr/ directory and then start Virgo (3.0.2.RELEASE). When I look at my OSGi state, that bundle is loaded -- it's a optional dependency of the org.springframework.web.servlet bundle, which is used by the Virgo splash bundle.
Then, I stop Virgo, move the com.springsource.org.apache.velocity bundle out of my repository/usr/ directory and move the org.apache.velocity version in, and restart Virgo. When I look at my OSGi state, that version is NOT loaded; when I look at org.springframework.web.servlet, it shows that that optional dependency is unsatisfied.
Opening up both JARs and looking at the MANIFEST.MF files, the differences appear to be trivial to my (admittedly-poorly-trained) eye -- some added version numbers in one or the other, some added uses:= conditions, but nothing that obviously should make the official 1.7.0 Velocity bundle not get loaded by Virgo.
Is there something I'm missing? (And to take a step back -- is there some way to debug why a bundle in the repository/usr/ directory doesn't get loaded? I can't seem to find the right place to see that event -- or non-event -- occur.)
Thanks...
