Or, why do you think it would fail? When X gets installed, the framework knows A can be resolved. e.g. * POST_PARSE: install X (this makes A resolved) * pre CLASSLOADER: asking RBDI if A can be resolved == true --> move to CL --> move to start/stop bundle deployer It's the RBDI that should use PackageAdmin. Or actually, one of the DI impls that we add in BundleClassLoaderDependencyDeployer would use it.
