Herve Boutemy commented on ARCHETYPE-366:
-----------------------------------------
I'm uneasy with this patch
I understand that it fixes your precise test case (with so few code change)
but I'm not sure it is ok for every other use case: not using the url
explicitely defined in the CLI as a first choice seems strange
I don't have a precise real-world use case where this order would be used to do
something useful, but I'm careful when it comes to such change
In fact, when I look at repository use in archetype plugin, it seems that not
defining an id is a problem (or using archetype-artifactId-repo isn't really
great)
but adding id support for repositories is a non-trivial task...

> for ARCHETYPE-344.
> One complicating factor with this example is that the 1.2 release of the
> archetype does not seem to be present in the Central index; I have no clue
> why. (It was released on February 15, i.e. more than three weeks ago, and my
> understanding is that the index is rebuilt weekly.) May not have anything to
> do with this bug, though.
