I have struggled with the maven configuration for my instance. I have a
custom plugin to generate thumbnails with ImageMagick.
Fortunately, once I upgraded to DSpace 3, I was able to use the additions
module to contain my plugin.
Looking at my code prior to DSpace 3, I believe that I needed to list my
custom module dependencies in both my custom module's pom and in
dspace/pom.xml in order to get the dependencies on to the runtime classpath.
