Description

KAR files deployed from the deploy directory install all features listed in the feature XML, even those whose install flag is set to manual. If the feature explicitly says the the feature is a manual install, the KAR deployer should not install the feature.

Seems like a simple if (!feature.getInstall() == "manual") in KarServiceImpl: line 277 would fix the issue.
