      Because hibernate tools use Require-Bundle instead of Import-Package to depend on slf4j.api, this project cannot use the rhel implementation (rh-common-java rpm) version of slf4j.api 1.7.4 .jar when installed via rpm on rhel/fedora.

      Here's the line that is causing the problem:

      https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-hibernate/blob/master/plugins/org.hibernate.eclipse/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF#L34

      We need to switch to using Import-Package to that any implementation of this package, regardless of Bundle-SymbolicName, can be used.
