If you’re unable to change the bundles then no, not really. The only way is to not install these bundles that have exports of javax.annoation.

I ended up following the process we used with hollowing out javax.annotation: making a bundle that:

• includes the other bundles as jars
• “Require-Bundle: system.bundle” to pull in the JVM’s javax.annotation classes
• Import-Package of the various javax.annotation packages in the bundled jars in case they’re already around
• Export-Package of the various javax.annotation packages in the bundled jars with a micro version bump to beat any of the existing jars.

That seems to work.
