import scope dependencies prefer to download pom rather than find it in the current project -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-4052 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4052 Project: Maven 2 Issue Type: Bug Components: Reactor and workspace Affects Versions: 2.0.9 Reporter: David Jencks I've run into this in geronimo trunk. Initial project state: root pom includes dependency A in dependencyManagement. this dependency is used (in dependencies) in several places including plugins/clustering/plugin-farm-datasource/ Snapshots for this project are deployed (at apache snapshot repo) project update: move A to dependencyManagement of plugins/system-database/pom.xml (also a pom packaging) include in plugins/clustering/plugin-farm-datasource/pom.xml <dependencyManagement> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.geronimo.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>system-database</artifactId> <version>${version}</version> <type>pom</type> <scope>import</scope> </dependency> </dependencies> </dependencyManagement> (this is a car packaging project, using the geronimo car-maven-plugin) now, clean the local repo and try to build the project from root. we see: pb:trunk david$ mvn clean install -Pit [INFO] Scanning for projects... [INFO] snapshot org.apache.geronimo.plugins:system-database:2.2-SNAPSHOT: checking for updates from apache.snapshots [INFO] snapshot org.apache.geronimo.plugins:system-database:2.2-SNAPSHOT: checking for updates from apache-snapshots [INFO] snapshot org.apache.geronimo.plugins:system-database:2.2-SNAPSHOT: checking for updates from codehaus-snapshots Downloading: http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository/org/apache/geronimo/plugins/system-database/2.2-SNAPSHOT/system-database-2.2-SNAPSHOT.pom rather than using the system-database pom in the local project it is downloading the obsolete snapshot. I've worked around this by uploading the system-database pom by hand. I may try to write a sample project but since seeing the bug depends on having a deployed snapshot and then changing it locally I have no idea how to write an automated test. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
