> Maven resolves old snapshot jars when an artifact changes from jar to pom
> deployment
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-6460
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6460
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Dependencies
> Affects Versions: 3.5.0
> Reporter: Andy Grove
> Priority: Major
>
> I have two projects, A and B.
> A started out as a simple project with single pom with jar packaging.
> B had a dependency on A.
> A was refactored to be multi module where each module has jar packaging. The
> parent pom now has pom packaging.
> After building A and deploying new artifacts to artifactory, and making
> changes to B's pom I saw compilation errors with references to to the old A
> and the new A.
> I eventually realized that B still had a reference to the original artifact
> from A (which was originally had jar packaging but now has pom packaging).
> Even though the latest snapshot for the parent pom in A was correctly
> published with pom packaging and no corresponding jar file, the
> maven-dependency-plugin was resolving the jar file from the previous snapshot
> release from before the refactor.
> This seems like a bug to me. It should have looked at the pom for the latest
> snapshot and seen that it had pom packaging and then failed to resolve the
> jar.
