Hi,
As my system uses Tycho for its build, what I did was to create an
Equinox P2 repository that includes one eclipse feature that contains
JBPM 5.3, Drools and all dependencies bundles needed. I've used Eclipse
Orbit bundles for all other dependecy:
http://download.eclipse.org/tools/orbit/downloads/drops/S20120917013952/
That worked great for 5.3, but unfortunately is no working with the
snapshot versions of JBPM and Drools. There are some new package imports
in the manifest that couldn't be resolved anymore:
> "Unable to satisfy dependency from org.drools.compiler 5.5.0.SNAPSHOT
> to package org.jboss.weld.environment.se.discovery.url 0.0.0."
