Key: MECLIPSE-602
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-602
Project: Maven 2.x Eclipse Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: PDE support
Affects Versions: 2.7
Reporter: Hasan Ceylan
Priority: Critical
Attachments: multiple-versions.patch
I have noticed this when I was working on the issue:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-601
It looks like that if you have multiple versions of the same plugin, only one
of them can be installed as the plugins and models maps are used with the
groupId.artifactId as the key.
So a subsequent version of the same plugin will replace the previous one
leading to the last-one-wins situation.
This might look an innocent bug however image you have two set of plugins in
your installation. Then you will end up a randomly -picked list of a single
entry list of the plugins in your repository that can possibly lead to unwanted
version chaos. Furthermore this situation can be missed easily and can cause a
big headache to the experiencing person.
