Brian Fox closed MDEP-88.
-------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
MDEP-50 has been added to support ranges in the unpack goal.
unpack-dependencies uses core functionality to resolve the ranges and thus the
behavior can't be fixed in the plugin.
> Dependency plugin does not resolve version ranges correctly
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MDEP-88
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-88
> Project: Maven 2.x Dependency Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0-alpha-4
> Environment: XP Pro SP2
> Reporter: David Hoffer
> Assignee: Brian Fox
>
> Similar to MRELEASE-134 in maven-release-plugin
> <version>[1.1.0,)</version>
> This version range can resolve to the latest dev SNAPSHOT. The dependency
> plugin should ignore SNAPSHOTS as that is not intended by the unbounded high
> end of the version range.
> This document:
> http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Dependency+Mediation+and+Conflict+Resolution#DependencyMediationandConflictResolution-DependencyVersionRanges
> addressed the requirements for version ranges and stated that "Resolution of
> dependency ranges should not resolve to a snapshot (development version)
> unless it is included as an explicit boundary". I think this requirement was
> forgetten when version ranges were implemented.
