Tamas Cservenak updated MNG-7906:
---------------------------------
Description:
This affects all released Maven versions so far.
Problem reproducer: https://github.com/cstamas/MNG-7852 (repo name is wrong,
obviously).
In short: unlike with dependencies, where you CAN override some "deep
transitive" dependency by re-declaring it directly as 1st level dependency in
POM, for depMgt import this does not work, actually, it works quite the
opposite ("first comes, wins"). Moreover, Maven remains silent about this, as
reproducer shows, and all of this goes unnoticed.
Solution: at least depMgt import should make "the maven way", maybe not by
default (to not break existing builds) but configurable. Problem is solved if
in reproducer:
- with fix enabled, junit 5.9.3 is used, AND
- with fix disabled, Maven yells about ignored depMgt import
