In our case with org.brotli:dec at Compress the "automodules" approach would be good enough. The whole library has a single public class and no dependencies, the bundle definition would be trivial. We've now marked the dependency with "resolution:=optional" and hope this allows Compress to remain a valid bundle. Do you know whether there is an easy way to test whether a library would work as a bundle without actually trying to deploy an application using it into a container?
