OBR should provide an API for resolving bundles dependencies regardless of 
locally installed bundles
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: FELIX-692
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-692
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Bundle Repository (OBR)
            Reporter: Arjun Panday
            Priority: Minor


Currently the dependencies that are installed locally are stripped from the OBR 
Resolver response, because it is assumed that the new bundles are to be 
installed locally. But i cannot use the OBR to launch a separate JVM or store 
the result for later reference... 

It would be interesting to have a pure Resolver API, distinct from the OBR's 
"installation process".

And/Or, as Richard Hall suggested, the OBR could provide better control over 
the repositories used during the resolve process (specifically the local 
repository).

(see thread "OBR and the referral tag" in [EMAIL PROTECTED])



Merely as a hint and for what it's worth, here's how i slightly modified the 
Resolver in bundlerepository 1.0.3 to serve my purpose (avoid ignoring locally 
installed bundles):
