Michael Vorburger commented on MINSTALL-126:
--------------------------------------------
Yes Karaf only updates Maven based URLs and Maven SNAPSHOTs, and that's exactly
what this is for; a proposed new option to be able to install artifacts into an
additional (!) local Maven repository. I use this regularly (we have it in
https://github.com/opendaylight/odlparent/blob/master/odlparent-lite/pom.xml#L273).
Would you like to elaborate in more details on what you mean by "you can use a
file url or snapshots" - where? (Using maven-deploy-plugin (with a file:// URL
parameter) instead of the maven-install-plugin in this context is no good,
because deploy adds a unique time stamp to JAR file names (and its
uniqueVersion option appears to be broken; see also issues MDEPLOY-44 and
MDEPLOY-211).)
BTW: I like my blog! You don't? Improvement Issues (without Fix Version) are
perfectly fine for things like this IMHO. If you are the (sole?) current
maintainer of maven-install-plugin, you are free to close issues where people
try to contribute possible enhancements, of course. (To subscribe to mailing
lists all over the universe to post an occasional suggestion like this, is too
much email traffic overhead.)

> I believe there are real world use cases where to have a localRepositoryPath

> the install-file goal would be useful.
