Changes in dependencies aren't reflected in target/modulename/WEB-INF/lib
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MWAR-216
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-216
Project: Maven 2.x WAR Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.1-alpha-2
Reporter: Kohsuke Kawaguchi
The war plugin copies module dependencies into target/modulename/WEB-INF/lib,
but it doesn't remove files that don't belong there.
So if I change POM to remove a dependency or change a version, you still see
the old jar in WEB-INF/lib until you do a clean rebuild.
As this often results in a rather painful bug (where you get two different
versions of the same library in WEB-INF/lib, which makes the program break in
some systems but not others), it'd be highly desirable if the plugin is smart
enough to delete files that shouldn't be there.
