NPE in ResolverImpl.java

There is a NPE in line 919, packages is null:

if (candCap.getNamespace().equals(PackageNamespace.PACKAGE_NAMESPACE))

{ mergeCandidatePackage( packages.m_importedPkgs, currentReq, candCap); }

see: https://github.com/apache/felix-dev/blob/master/resolver/src/main/java/org/apache/felix/resolver/ResolverImpl.java

 

Occurs irregularly, maybe race condition releated to permutations and using the OpenHashMap implementation.
