While fixing the Bitbucket pipeline for the "Filter by Score" IGB app and copying the built .jar file to the Downloads section, when attempted to add the Downloads URL as a new app repository in IGB. However, IGB froze upon doing so.

This issue may be related to the fact that we haven’t updated the app code to align with the recent OSGi (Felix) framework changes in IGB. Other apps were recently updated to be compatible with the new framework, and this app may need similar adjustments.

Steps to reproduce:

Clone a copy of the Score Filter App source code from Bitbucket - https://bitbucket.org/lorainelab/filter-by-score
Build the app using mvn clean install command, it generates a target folder.

Start IGB
Select Tools > Open App Manager
Click Manage Repositories... button (opens Plug-in Repositories tab in Preferences window)
Click Add... button (opens Plugin Repository dialog)
Enter a name for your repository (can be anything)
Click Choose local folder button
Select the "target" folder in your filter-by-score project folder.
Once you add "target" as a new local App repository, you should see the Score Filter App added as a new App in the IGB App Manager window but this isn't working as expected.
