Re: [tycho-dev] build failures with latest snapshot

I would at least want the resolver to always be greedy and add
optional dependencies to the target if they are available. I guess it
would be too harsh to fail by default if an optional dependency can't
be resolved and not all optional dependencies are required at
compile-time anyways.
