Hi folks!

First, a big thanks to Gav and others for the upfront support on IRC :)

Oki, here comes my problem in a hopefully bit more structured form:

The maven plugin build is failing since a few months
https://builds.apache.org/job/maven-plugins-ITs-3.x/

We are working on getting this finally fixed since a few days and Dennis 
Lundberg yesterday discovered that our build also fails locally if 
-Dmaven.repo.local gets used. 

The reason is that we heavily do dirty tricks and use the -Dmaven.repo.local 
inside our own integration test setup sometimes. This might not be the utterly 
cleanest way to do it, but it's that way since years. Another project would not 
do this, but we need it to test Mavens internal core stuff.


Now my pledge:

Is it possible to assign the maven-plugins-ITs-3.x an own maven installation 
with a slightly tweaked settings.xml? 
It should have the following tag enabled (is disabled by default) and pointing 
to the same location as the -Dmaven.repo.local currently points to:

<localRepository>/path/to/special/local/repo</localRepository>

The -Dmaven.repo.local must get removed from this build.


Is this possible?

txs in advance and LieGrue,
strub
