             Summary: disable transitive dependencies in maven config
                 Key: LUCENE-5217
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5217
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Robert Muir


Our ivy configuration does this: each dependency is specified and so we know 
what will happen. Unfortunately the maven setup is not configured the same way.

Instead the maven setup is configured to download the internet: and it excludes 
certain things specifically.

This is really hard to configure and maintain: we added a 
'validate-maven-dependencies' that tries to fail on any extra jars, but all it 
really does is run a license check after maven "runs". It wouldnt find 
unnecessary dependencies being dragged in if something else in lucene was using 
them and thus they had a license file.

Since maven supports wildcard exclusions: MNG-3832, we can disable this 
transitive shit completely.

We should do this, so its configuration is the exact parallel of ivy.
