ut .bnd files are still not working (i haven't tried your fix yet). But i prepared mini-version of my test project. I think with this version you can reproduce the problem. i attached it to this issue in osgi-test.zip. (I think you will need unzip, than execute "mvn install" in the project root folder in order to install all artifacts in the local repository, and make them available to IDEA) In osgi-test/config-bundle/target/ folder you will find two jars: config-bundle.jar - created by Osmorc plugin config-bundle-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar - created by Maven2. As you can see, even Bundle-SymbolicName is not written to the MANIFES.MF of config-bundle.jar. You will also find two .bnd files (I tested with both of them): osgi.bnd - contains placeholders than maven fills during build osgi-without-placeholders.bnd - simple bnd config withouot any placeholders I think it would be great also, if you will add support of such placeholders somehow. For example read them rom maven config (directly from pom.xml or through Idea.). but I think if user will be able to fill generic list of placeholders in facet config it would be also great an useful.
