Might be if the metadata got downloaded but the artifact (a fat jar for example) didn't make it?
I bet there are situations where such things still might end ugly. Just for the record: I'm currently looking at maven-repository-plugin BundleCreateIT#createWithSCMInfoProvided(). It looks like this issue only hits ITs. Here is the local IT repo on our CI box: https://builds.apache.org/job/maven-plugins-ITs-3.x/ws/maven-repository-plugin/target/it-repo/ A comparison of the artifacts I get locally shows that commons-cli-1.0 and commons-lang-2.1 don't make it on the CI box. I'll try to ping infra and get drop them from our jenkins repo cache.
