-----------------------------------

I have given up all hope, MNG-2315 which is similar has been lying there since 
2006.

> I would like to be able to exclude all transitive dependencies from a certain 
> dependencies.  This is especially useful when depending on an artifact with a 
> classifier that may not have the same dependencies as the main artifact.  
> Currently the only way to do this is by excluding each dependency 
> individually which requires significant effort and is prone to becoming out 
> of date.  The following syntax is one possibility.
> Exclude all transitive dependencies
> {code}
> <exclusion>
>   <groupId>*</groupId>
> </exclusion>
> {code}
> Exclude transitive dependencies with the groupId "org.company"
> {code}
> <exclusion>
>   <groupId>org.company</groupId>
>   <artifactId>*</artifactId>
> </exclusion>
> {code}
