TwigBundle 3.1 requiring Console 3.3 ? this looks wrong to me

Only to run tests with the last version of FrameworkBundle (https://travis-ci.org/symfony/symfony/jobs/191309256). Another option is to make FrameworkBundle requiringconsole. (There is probably a better solution).

well, either FraneworkBundle should require it, or it should not be broken when the component is not installed. Otherwise it is a BC break in FrameworkBundle, and TwigBundle is the wrong place to fix it (all projects depending on FrameworkBundle would have to do the same, which is wrong)

It was already the case for the templating component in 3.3. AFAIK we allow this kind of change (requiring to install a new dependency) and it's valid according to semver.

I'm not against adding Console as a hard dependency of FrameworkBundle, but I guess a goal of 3.3/Flex is to have less components installed by default when requiring framework-bundle. This change will go in the opposite direction.

the issue is that FrameworkBundlealways registers the compiler pass coming from the component. So it means that the componentis required. There is no point making the dependency optional in composer when it is only optional if you never use the bundle

We can also duplicate the code of this helper in the component and in the bundle, but I'm not sure it's worth it.

The discussion in the PR talked about skipping the compiler pass when the component compiler pass class does not exist.
Registering the compiler pass for console commands is useless if you don't have the console component anyway. The only case needing to take care is people using console without the pass in it, but this is solved easily by making FrameworkBundle conflict withsymfony/console < 3.3.

As long as you don't skip the registration, it is a mandatory requirement

Ok, your proposal is way better. See#21248. Closing this one.
