[~msparrao] thx for updating us. 
Like [~rstryker] I see no hard requirement on rse versions in our plugins. We have org.jboss.ide.eclipse.as.rse.core requiring a non-specified version of org.eclipse.rse.core:
{code:title=https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-server/blob/master/as/plugins/org.jboss.ide.eclipse.as.rse.core/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF#L12}
Bundle-SymbolicName: org.jboss.ide.eclipse.as.rse.core;singleton:=true
Bundle-Version: 3.7.0.qualifier
Require-Bundle: 
 ...
 org.eclipse.rse.core,
 org.eclipse.rse.subsystems.files.core,
 org.eclipse.rse.services,
 org.eclipse.rse.services.files.ftp,
 org.eclipse.rse.services.local,
 org.eclipse.rse.services.ssh,
 org.eclipse.rse.subsystems.shells.core,
...
{code}
The problem I see is that rse version >= 4.0.0 is expected to break API compatibilty (see https://wiki.eclipse.org/Version_Numbering#When_to_change_the_minor_segment). Anpther thing that bothers me is that according to [~nickboldt] there is no publicly available rse v4.6, so there's no way for us currently to test/verify this newer rse plugin. You seem to imply that there's a closed source version 4.6 available from IBM? What's the plugin that you're using that requires 4.6?

>             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
>          Issue Type: Bug
>         Environment: This happens on eclipse Luna and Oxygen installing from the marketplace or directly from eclipse when creating a new JBOSS server
>            Reporter: Manuel Parrao
>            Priority: Minor
>             Fix For: 4.12.x

> I have a product that uses different plugins and some of them failed  to be installed if JBOSS tools are installed first since JBOSS tools has a dependency on org.eclipse.rse.ui V3.3 and the other plugins I use work with org.eclipse.rse.ui V4.4 and org.eclipse.rse.ui V4.6. On the other hand if I install first the other plugins and then try to install JBOSS tools, JBOSS does not get installed due the same dependency issue.
> Would it be possible to modify the manifest to accept org.eclipse.rse.ui 3.3 or later?
