Unexpected behaviour <repository> settings in POM.xml.
------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MNG-2633
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2633
             Project: Maven 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Dependencies
    Affects Versions: 2.0.4
         Environment: - Win XP
- JDK 1.5
            Reporter: Davy Toch
         Attachments: pom.xml

Included a POM file which defines two repositories : a non-existing one and the 
central M2 repository.

There is no local settings file ~/.m2/setting.xml and the complete folder 
~/.m2/repository/junit is deleted.

Now if I run 'maven install', I get the following :

$mvn install

Questions:
1. Is it normal that retrieving the artifact (jar) completely fails the build? 
M2 could still try to connect to 
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2 to retrieve the artifact.
2. why is the POM file directly retrieved from http://repo1.maven.org/maven2 
(no attempt to retrieve it from http://blieblie)?
